Gin, correction on the hole measurement…it’s 1.5 inches. I’m not too concerned about the raccoons and snakes…our neighborhood is very open (new development) and I have never seen either those out in the open area. Although open, there is enough smaller trees and shrubbery near the house to where it’s been prolific for three years straight. Thanks again for your interest and reply!
Fred,
I think you’re 100% correct. I didn’t even consider the obvious! I have a new door in the works and it should be up and running next weekend. Thank you!!!
Hey everyone…thanks for the great info!!! Most appreciated! So here’s some more details regarding my situation. Trapping is not an option unfortunately due to time and effort (although my husband on occasion will monitor the situation with a bb gun but despite his good shot, no luck yet). I’m wondering if the depth of the box is what may be allowing those pesty birds to gain access. The dimensions from top to bottom of the box are 8 inches tall (front) x 9.25 inches tall (back), and the hole size diameter is 1 1/16 which is actually smaller that what most plans call for. No perch. Here’s a pic annotated with top and bottom measurements as show by yellow highlighted lines.
