Description
Great Eight 8 Room Purple Martin House
Help martins find a perfect roosting spot in your yard with the S&K Great Eight Purple Martin House. The classic shape on this home evokes an apartment complex, with its dual levels and pitched roof. The home has eight separate compartments, each measuring 8.25″ long, 8.5″ wide, and 6″ high, for the comfort of your martins. The white sides help regulate the internal temperature of the home, while the green roof brings a touch of color to it. Each crescent shaped entry hole allows martins passage into the shelter, while preventing starlings from overtaking the home. An integrated nest cup on the base of each compartment helps martins place their eggs safely and centrally, while the textured plastic offers a secure grip. Porches beneath each entrance create takeoff and landing spots for the birds, and the extended floors on each unit add even more vantage points. Rain canopies above the entries protect the units from the elements, as do the overhang and gutters on the dark green, pitched roof. Each panel, accommodating the entries, lifts upward for nest checks and maintenance, and snaps into place with tabs on the black base. The UV stabilized, copolymer plastic construction ensures a lasting home, and the unit snaps together for assembly without requiring any tools. A 2″ diameter opening through the center of the structure accommodates the S&K Galvanized Steel Easy Pulley System Martin House Pole (not included), so you can mount this unit at its necessary height. Enjoy wonderful martins colonizing in your area with this Great Eight Purple Martin House. Assembly required. Made in the USA.
