The Troyer Sparrow-Resistant Poly-Tuff Bluebird House combines the features of Troyer's Sparrow-resistant design with durable, easy-care construction.
- Durable Poly-Tuff construction - Made from UV-treated Poly Tuff with an HDPE base resin for a long-lasting bluebird house that resists rot and mildew and never needs painting.
- Slotted Entrance - Allows additional light into the nesting cavity and is an important part of the house's sparrow-resistant design.
- Easy-Open Front for Nest Checks - Pull the two side pins and the front of the house drops down for convenient nest checks and cleaning. When finished, simply raise the front and replace the pins.
- Removable Cedar Nest Tray - Slides out for convenient nest checks and easy cleaning. The tray can be hosed off when needed and reduces the usable cavity space to help discourage House Sparrows.
- Mounting Hardware Included - includes an aluminum post bracket and hanging bolt with wing nut for mounting the house.

Mounting and Placement of Bluebird Houses
A good location can make your bluebird house even more inviting. Mount the PTBB on a freestanding post in an open area where bluebirds have access to short grass or other suitable feeding habitats. Yards, gardens and areas near the home can all provide successful nesting locations when the surrounding habitat is right.
Bluebirds feed heavily on insects, making them especially welcome visitors around gardens and other outdoor areas. Position the house where it can be conveniently monitored throughout the season while providing bluebirds with access to the open areas they use for feeding for additional protection from climbing predators, consider adding a bluebird pole guard to your mounting set up. For more detailed placement information see our Where to place the Bluebird House article.
