About Paradis du Nichoir
Make real room for birds.
We specialise in birdhouses. Our role is to make choosing easier, offer well-designed models and explain the right steps so that a shelter is genuinely useful.
Where we started
A birdhouse is small. Its role is not.
In many gardens and neighbourhoods, natural cavities are becoming scarcer. Old trees, uneven walls and quiet corners are gradually giving way to smoother spaces where some species struggle to find somewhere to nest.
A well-chosen birdhouse cannot replace a rich natural habitat, but it can provide valuable shelter. It also lets us observe wildlife more closely and better understand the birds that share our surroundings.
What we do
We select, explain and support.
We work as an independent specialist: we compare the available solutions and select those that offer the best balance of purpose, design, durability and price.
Selection is only part of our work. We organise products by species and need, explain their features, then develop guides to help you choose the right entrance, height and location.
Discover all our birdhousesOur method
Four questions before we select a model.
Who is it for?
The entrance, internal space and shape must suit the habits of the species likely to use it.
Does it really protect?
We assess stability, depth, ventilation, drainage and protection from the weather.
Will it last?
Materials, joints, fixings and ease of maintenance matter just as much as the birdhouse's appearance.
Is the price fair?
Every model must offer a clear benefit and quality consistent with its price, without unnecessary details.
Our belief
Good advice matters as much as a good product.
An excellent birdhouse placed in full sun, too low or beside a busy passage may remain empty. Conversely, a simple model that is correctly oriented and installed in the right place can become a lasting refuge.
We therefore prefer to explain limitations, installation periods and maintenance rather than promise immediate occupancy. Birds always decide. Our job is to give them the best possible conditions.
