| Hello all! I finally did a webpage showing the various types of predator guards and their pros and cons. See photo by Ron Kingston of the wobbling stovepipe guard, which is one of the most effective. Instructions here:http://www.sialis.org/baffle.htm
Remember that
- No predator guard invented to date is 100% effective against all predators in all situations. Know which predators you're dealing with to prevent attacks. A combination of guards may be required to protect against multiple predators.
- If boxes are mounted near or under trees or fences, climbing predators may be able to gain access to boxes from the roof despite pole mounted guards. Cats can jump as high as 6 feet to get on a nestbox roof.
