Turn your squirrel house into a smart wildlife station—no new house required. Capture the secret life of squirrels with the Squirrel House Camera DIY Add-On. This kit lets you upgrade your existing squirrel house or Nutty Mansion with a motion-activated Wi-Fi camera and solar-powered charging system—no need to buy a whole new setup. Add a Micro SD (8GB-128GB) to the camera and record motion-activated videos (Videos can be recorded in live view without the addition of a Micro SD card). Otherwise, a static image will be captured when motion is detected. DIY-Friendly InstallationThis kit includes a two-sided drilling template tailored for either the Squirrel House or Nutty Mansion. With basic tools (drill, jigsaw, tape), you’ll create a precise roof cutout to mount the camera housing box. Clear markings guide you through each step—just follow the template, drill, cut, and attach. Smart Camera Features Motion-triggered photo capture Comes with a 14-foot and 3-foot chew-resistant cable for your squirrel houses Sends images directly to your smartphone via the Bird Lover app Optional micro-SD card slot for local storage (card not included) Cloud storage available via Bird Lover app subscription Easy access via removable housing lid The power switch and charging port are protected under the lid Solar-Powered SimplicityThe included solar panel powers the camera via a 3-foot USB-C cable. Mount it directly on the housing box to minimize cord exposure, or place it up to 14 feet or 3 feet using the included chew-resistant bracket. Pivoting mount for optimal sun angle Battery housed inside the solar panel (not the camera) Clean with a soft brush and water as needed Please Note: During the winter months, the solar panel may not keep the battery fully charged. Please ensure the solar panel is mounted in a convenient location to ensure easy access to battery for charging.
