They shred up bark and pretty much fill up a box and bury themselves in it. For whatever reason, they are not in there all year. I think they must hibernate in deeper cavities. BTW, I live in the woods and the BB houses are not ideally located for those birds. Chickadees and Titmice are the usual occupants.
