Yes. The Birdies Villa brand has been protected since March 2022, as well as the manufacturing process and the precise design of the birdhouse.

Because a Birdies Villa is not a traditional birdhouse.

It is a large multi-species habitat, designed as a true architectural element, handcrafted, durable and tested in the field.
Each Birdies Villa represents hundreds of hours of design, research, manufacturing and observation, using rot-resistant materials and technical solutions conceived to last for decades.

It is not a disposable product, but a lasting object, functional for wildlife and carrying values.

When you purchase a Birdies Villa (or a smaller adapted model), you are investing in hundreds of hours of work and research that have made it possible to develop a product of incomparable quality.

Here are several possible solutions:

Co-ownership: If you live in a co-owned property, propose the installation to your property manager and neighbors during a general assembly. The cost is shared, and everyone benefits daily.

Sponsorship: If you refer a friend, a school, a company or any other person/organization that validates a quotation, you receive a 10% discount on your own quotation for each validated referral. For example, 5 validated referrals divide your quotation by two. With 10 validated referrals, your Birdies Villa and its installation can be offered to you free of charge! (Offer valid only for the large Birdies Villa model.)

Rental: You may also choose to rent your Birdies Villa for an unlimited duration (minimum 3-year commitment). A monthly payment is charged, and after 3 years you may either continue the subscription or purchase the birdhouse with a reduced purchase price corresponding to the installments already paid and the installation fee already settled. You may also request maintenance starting from the 5th year of rental.

You may meet us at trade shows to get a clearer idea of the birdhouses.

If you wish to see a Birdies Villa installed outdoors, you can request this via the contact form. We will provide you with the address closest to you of a public location or a private owner, subject to their prior agreement.

The 17 chambers of your Birdies Villa will not all be occupied at the same time, and this is perfectly normal.

As a general rule, birds of the same species do not nest in immediate proximity to one another.
There are, however, exceptions, such as:

• house sparrows or tree sparrows, which may coexist and simultaneously occupy certain chambers of the Birdies Villa (notably chambers no. 1, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9), if they choose to do so;

• swallows, which also coexist, but build their own nests, most often under a roof.

It is, however, not uncommon for different species to nest very close to one another.
For example, we observed a blue tit and a great tit occupying two distinct but very close chambers within the same Birdies Villa during the same winter. This situation was documented by a court-appointed judicial officer (bailiff), through an official, dated and photographed report objectively confirming the presence of these two simultaneous nestings.
The official report is available on the homepage of the website.

In any case, birds will use your Birdies Villa in turn, season after season.
When they feel comfortable, they may return to nest every year.

For the past 4 years, we have carried out numerous maintenance operations and have observed that in approximately 90% of cases, Birdies Villas have hosted several families within the same year.
Each autumn, we remove between 1 and 7 nests per Villa, all perfectly shaped to fit the square chambers of the hotel.

Even our display model, installed in full sun just in front of our workshop and along one of the busiest national roads in France, hosts two nestings each year.

Rest assured: everyone gathers at the feeders, and the spectacle is always there.

After several refills, birds often become accustomed to your presence. However, refilling too frequently may also make them less inclined to nest. Observe their behavior throughout the seasons in order to adjust your visits.

Maintaining your Birdies Villa is quite simple; it is not mandatory, but the more care you give it, the more likely you are to see birds occupy it. An annual cleaning is recommended to keep the Villa welcoming. When refilling the feeders, a quick wipe with a sponge at the same time will be perfect to keep the central courtyard of your Birdies Villa clean and inviting.

We will provide you with a maintenance guide indicating the recommended intervention periods.

All our birdhouses are manufactured in the same way, using the same materials. We chose Douglas pine because it is naturally rot-resistant and resistant to mold, weather conditions and wood-boring insects. The different finishes we offer further reinforce the lifespan of the wood and can be applied many times throughout the life of your birdhouse. If necessary, the roofs can be replaced, as they are not glued to the structure of the birdhouse. The screws and metal plates are made of stainless steel, preventing any appearance of rust.
The anchoring of your birdhouse to the ground on its post (Villa model) is also designed to last for several decades.

We cannot provide an exact lifespan for your Birdies Villa, but we can guarantee that you are investing in a durable habitat, designed to remain in place far longer than standard products available on the market.

Yes.

Each Birdies Villa has a unique serial number, allowing identification and long-term tracking.

It is also unique by nature: the wood used displays grain, shades and variations specific to each piece, making every Birdies Villa different, even within the same model.

Like any creation made from living materials, no two Birdies Villas are exactly alike.

Droppings are very rare thanks to the 45° roof inclination, and the smooth, waterproof surface allows rain to clean them away effectively and continuously. Any residue is therefore quickly removed, ensuring a clean appearance.

You may of course make cat hair, dog hair or any other natural nesting material available, but it should be placed outside the chambers. Birds build their nests themselves and prefer to choose the twigs and materials they use. We can offer you a nesting material dispenser to attach to your Birdies Villa so birds can help themselves. You may also make one yourself using, for example, a spring from an old mattress.
