• The Cambridge Swift Maxi block is easy to fit into the wall cavity and is a standard UK block width of 440mm.
• It has 4 nesting pans so it doesn’t matter which way up it is fitted
• The entrance bricks are standard UK brick sizes so involve no cutting to fit.
• We suggest using a DPC or waterproof sealant around the maxi block to avoid any possible water ingress
• Preferably install the built in block into the gable end on the north or east side of the building 3 courses down from the top. This gives an ideal height for the block and is an area where there will be little disturbance from humans. Keep the flight path of the nesting box clear so do not allow trees or shrubs to grow in front of the wall. Swifts likes to breed in colonies, therefore it is advisable to build in several building blocks together. The distance between the mounting the blocks must then be at least 40 centimetres. No nesting material needs to be added. The recommendation is that you should place a minimum of 1 block per new dwelling so on a 30-house development you would have 30 blocks on the site.
Maintenance:
Swifts use little nest material and do not make dirty marks on the façade.
