All houses and feeders are made to order within 3-7 business days. Spring and fall are my busiest times so please be patient.

This is a nice condo for a grey or a fox squirrel.

House features:

Approx. Dimensions

• 15.5" x 9.25 x 9.25 with an 18 3/4" backboard
• 4.5. side porches
• 4.5" front porches
• Overall dimensions 18 3/4"H x 14.5" W x 14.25" D
• A housewarming kit which may include nesting material and some snacks. All items are subject to availability and may change at any time.

• Made from 3/4" pine
• Air flow/drainage holes in sides and bottom
• 3" entrance hole
• Exterior predator guard w/ capped back
• Front door with screw closure for easy cleaning
• Choose your door closure:

-Screw Closure, as pictured and recommended so predators can't open the box in a tree.

-Barrel bolt closure, perfect for easy opening in release cages, NOT recommended for hanging in trees as raccoons can easily open them. You will not get that tight door fit as you get with a screw closure..

• Choose from:

-No interior shelf

-Half interior shelf (helps babies get up to entrance)

-Full interior shelf

• Covered side porch
• Front porch **** Front porch is not attached during shipping to keep costs down. Follow the instructions to attach the porch***
• Grip strips on three sides for climbing
• Two 2" exterior grade mounting screws and instructions

This is a very large and very heavy house. If you are using it for a release cage please check the above dimensions to ensure it fits. It will also need to sit on a shelf in the cage.

SEALING:
We now offer to seal our boxes with nontoxic Agra Life Timber seal, It is a polymer sealer and does not resemble the polyurethane sealers in any way. The sealer has no odor and is barely detectable. It leaves a slightly rough surface which is good for the squirrels. They will not slip off it like they would a traditional sealer. This sealer is used by many zoos. Sealing the box may alter the color slightly and a reddish tint around some of the screws is an indication that the box has been sealed. You can also pop open the box and feel the smooth, unsealed raw wood interior vs. the rough exterior. Please allow 2-3 extra days for drying time if you are choosing the ‘sealed’ option.
Whether boxes are sealed or not, they will darken over time. This is not mold. It is the natural process of the wood.

MOUNTING:
Boxes should be mounted a minimum of 10’ in a tree. Poles are acceptable but leave the squirrels open to predators while trees provide some cover. Once the house is up in the tree leave it alone. Squirrels do not like to be disturbed and will not move in if they feel threatened. If you must clean it out, please wait until after the babies are gone.
MATERIALS:
We only use pine. Cedar has perfumes and oils that are not good for the squirrels to breathe in. Food grade nontoxic glue and homemade wood putty are also used to fix cosmetic issues. Exterior grade screws and nails are used as fasteners.

IMPORTANT INFO:

• If your item arrives damaged, please send a photo within 24 hours of timestamped delivery so a replacement can be sent out.
• Because each box is custom made for the buyer, we don’t accept returns. If you insist on returning your item, it will be done so at your expense and subject to a $20 restocking fee. Exchanges are accepted but item will also be sent back at customer’s expense.
• Straw, aspen and sphagnum moss are the only things recommended by rehabbers to put inside. Fabrics and poly fil can wrap around the babies and cause death or amputation.
• It is the consumer's responsibility to know local and state laws regarding the feeding and housing of wildlife.
• By purchasing an item from this site you are acknowledging that you have read ALL of the policies listed including, but not limited to, product availability, shipping, regulations, etc.
• We reserve the right to change the design to better the product at any time without notification.

Please be aware that there is no guarantee any specific animal will occupy your house. Houses are designed by me and rehabbers to fit a specific animal's needs but that does not mean that that animal will move in there. Being that the holes are 3”, small birds may choose to nest in the spot. This is something that can only be stopped by pulling out their nesting material. The houses are designed to keep predators out. Squirrels can take a few hours to a few months to move in so be patient.
