Description

Just beneath the grass surface are various types of beetle and mosquito larvae, such as leatherjackets (crane fly larvae), but also other insect larvae and worms. These pests feast on the turf. Various birds are fond of these insects and worms. However, crows cause even more damage to the turf with their large beaks when they search for these larvae. Starlings, on the other hand, have a long , pointed beak with which they do not damage the grass. By offering nesting opportunities for the starling, you lure the starlings close to grassland where the birds like to roost.

In autumn and winter, when there are few insects, the starling lives on fruit. It is therefore advisable to plant several fruit trees near the starling pole This way you attract the starlings to your property and the birds help maintain the lawn.

Ecovery can take care of the construction and installation of the pole, as well as the planting of fruit trees.
