Why Hollow Log Homes - 3

We are destroying our precious native creatures on a large scale - every day!

WHY???

Because we are simply not aware...

That it can take around 200 years for old-growth trees to develop - even under favourable conditions.

That "untidy" understoreys are needed for protection and cover - as well as for an abundant food resource.

That by performing regular "control burns" and old tree and dead-limb "clean-ups" we are destroying hollow logs, old trees, and killing and maiming wildlife that use these trees and ground cover as their habitat.

That private gardens as well as public spaces, farms, and golf courses can play a vital role in the preservation of native wildlife by simply planting relevant vegetation and providing artificial nesting sites in established trees.

That the provision of "artificial" sites is very well accepted by all types of animals requiring nesting hollows in which to breed.

Hollow Log Homes specialises in the manufacture and supply of properly researched, sturdily constructed, and environmentally responsible nesting boxes.

Homes can be installed in the appropriate locations by us or by yourself and your family using our "Do-It-Yourself" location and siting guide.
