Provide a home for birds and other wildlife

Return to: DIY Projects

Tree hollows take up to 50 years to develop so trees are typically 100 to 150 years old before they have nest hollows.
Cutting down old growth trees and clearing land for our homes, means many of the native birds, gliders, possums and micro-bats cannot find homes.

You can help address the housing shortage for city wildlife by using a DIY guide to construct a nest box for your backyard or buy a pre-built nest box.
