A lack of suitable nesting sites is thought to be one of the main reasons behind the decline in swift populations. The Cambridge Swift Nest Box provides a low-cost and long-term nesting solution for swifts. There are two parts, a concrete nesting chamber that is designed to go into a cavity and a half brick facing to blend into an external wall with a choice of either red or buff facing bricks. When installed the box is discreet and does not impact the building's aesthetic.
This nest box should be sited at a height of at least five metres, with a clear flight path to the entrance. If possible avoid south facing walls.
