Use, Care & Safety

1. Choose a quiet, shaded and weather-sheltered position away from feeders and busy paths.
2. Secure the loop so the pocket cannot fall, swing dangerously or become entangled.
3. Keep it out of reach of cats and other predators; placement alone cannot make it predator-proof.
4. Do not disturb an occupied pocket. Follow local wildlife guidance and avoid handling nests, eggs or birds.
5. Inspect from a distance for fraying, mould, sharp fibres or unsafe fastening; replace when deteriorated.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will hummingbirds use it?

Hummingbirds are not native to Australia. No bird species or occupancy is guaranteed; local small birds may ignore or investigate it depending on habitat and placement.

Is it waterproof?

No. The weave may shed some water, but it is not guaranteed waterproof. Hang it in a sheltered position.

Can it replace a purpose-designed nest box?

No. Species have different nesting needs, so seek local wildlife advice before installing artificial habitat.
