After installing a new trail cam by a tree mounted bluebird nesting box to film the activities at the nesting box, I discovered it being raided by a raccoon. While I was aware that this might could happen, this shocking revelation that it was happening to MY nesting box sent me into action. I searched for solutions and found very little information regarding setting up a defense system for tree-mounted nesting boxes to keep predators away.
My research did show a noel guard That is mounted on the front of the nesting box. So, with just an idea from a few pictures, I set out to make one. So, pardon the handheld iPhone video, but if you are interested in how to make these guards yourself, this video should be useful.
As a bonus, I also showed how to construct a tree guard from duct pipe for form protection from raccoons and snakes.
