Lots of ground cover, evergreens, log piles, ponds, especially an UNTIDY garden, long grass wild areas.

Good luck.

Re: how to attract tits..

im assuming you are already putting out nuts? but if not then get a few peanut feeders/fat balls for them...but yes, some cover is good too so plant some taller shrubs etc maybe in pots if you dont have much room? and always a bowl of water for drinking/bathing

Re: how to attract tits..

Forgot sunflower seeds they love them.. Nest boxes as they need to nest and somewhere to roost in winter.

Re: how to attract tits..

So you got hoggies now and now worrying about Tits in particular??? I suggest you purchase a good book at least on wildlife gardening

You need nest boxes. Have you seen any tits in the area. Are there mature trees/shrubs nearby. Put some water out, a birdbath or just a shallow bowl. They all need to drink. What other birds do you get in your garden.

And give them time..

Although next boxes are always a good idea i dont think they have any effect on getting tits to come to your garden and use feeders?...looking at your pic...it looks very cold and mountainous. Beautiful infact...but if i was a tit id rather be in my garden down south in sunny Kent !

Re: how to attract tits..

Dan, you have to be nice to women if you want attention.


The BLUE TITS will use the nest boxes in winter as a roost if there are any in your area Outdoors..

Good luck..

Your not supposed to use the whole crate, a few sprays will do.

For shame, didn't Homer Simpson say " I giggle like a girl when someone says Titmouse"?
