This fat *** keeps attacking my blue tits bird box. It’s already ripped the felt off the top, but now it’s sticking it’s head inside and attacking the young. I’ve kept scaring it off but it keeps coming back. Any advice?

Birding is for everyone no matter how good or bad we are at it,enjoy it while you can
Hi Kyra, take a look HERE we protected our wooden nest boxes with this method as we had Great Spotted Woodpeckers visit our garden and following the addition of the wire mesh and metal hole plate we had no more problems from woodpeckers.
This was one of our wooden nest boxes after stapling wire mesh around the sides and underneath the box and adding the metal hole plate to the front.
