Attract beautiful, musical bluebirds to your yard while dissuading sparrow invaders with this Coveside Sparrow-Resistant Eastern Bluebird House. The innovative design of this nest box effectively deters sparrows from roosting, while providing bluebirds a great housing option. Research from the University of Kentucky found that bluebirds will readily use a slot entry, while sparrows prefer a round hole. The 4" long and 1.25" high, rectangular entry on this shelter perfectly meets these needs, and a generous, overhanging roof protects the interior from precipitation. Place the included, 1.5" thick, pine block at the base of the home to decrease its depth, as this same research indicates that bluebirds will still roost, while sparrows prefer a deeper nest. The open corners below the roof keep this home ventilated and aid in regulating its internal temperature, bolstered by the 0.75" thick, all pine construction. Pull the front panel of this home upward for nest checks and to add the wooden block for less depth if needed. A metal latch keeps the home securely closed, and the rough interior of the item helps nestlings grip it and climb out. The pine panels create this well-researched nest box, and the unit will offer many seasons of service to select songbirds. Use the attached, back hanger to place the home against a post or wall, or pole mount it with a mounting bracket (not included). Discourage sparrows from overtaking your bluebird trail thanks to this Sparrow-Resistant Eastern Bluebird House. Made in the USA.

Frequently asked questions

What is this made from?

The exact materials for this piece are listed in the specifications above. Across the range we use untreated cedar, kiln-dried hardwood, metal, ceramic, glass, recycled cotton and preserved moss. A few designs — window feeders and the recycled-plastic range — do use plastic, and where they do it is stated on the product page.

Will it look exactly like the photo?

Images are representative. Our range comes from a number of independent workshops and suppliers, so an item may occasionally differ slightly from the photo in finish, grain, colour or small details. Natural wood and hand-finished pieces are never identical to one another. We are bringing more of the range into our own inventory to reduce this. If what arrives is not what you expected, email support@birdlover.store — returns are free for 30 days.

How does shipping work?

Shipping is free on every order, to all 28 countries in our delivery zone — you will see whether yours is covered at checkout. The range comes from a number of different small workshops and suppliers, so dispatch times vary from piece to piece, and items in the same order may arrive separately. We would rather not quote a delivery window we cannot keep, so we do not: you will get tracking by email as soon as your order ships.

Can I leave it outside all year?

Nearly everything here is built for year-round outdoor use — check the specifications above if you are unsure about a particular piece. Untreated wood will silver and weather over time; that is normal and does not affect how it works.

What if it is not right?

Return it within 30 days of delivery for a refund, for any reason. Return shipping is free — email support@birdlover.store and we will send you a prepaid return label. If it arrived damaged or we sent the wrong item, send a photo and we will put it right straight away. Refunds are issued within 5–7 business days of the item reaching us. EU customers also have a 14-day right of withdrawal.
