Artificial Habitat Structures and Installation

Enhance Wildlife Habitat

We sell and install nesting boxes for bats, songbirds, raptors, owls, and waterfowl. We also design and build larger habitat projects such as raptor poles, barn swallow nesting structures and snake hibernacula.

Our kits make it easy for you to install habitat structures for a range of species that include:

Free site visit and technical support to help you throughout the selection process
Customized plan for your property detailing structure placement
Nest boxes made of 1-inch thick rough-cut white pine made to suit the requirements of your target species
Hardware and materials required for installation
