boxes made from OSB get chewed up pretty fast. plywood is better, but milled lumber is the best. as far as wood goes. the chewing critters are attracted by the glue.
i stopped making them out of wood and have went with the plastic boxes/newspaper tubes as the bears keep ripping them down and ruining them. with the plastic, they can be just nailed back up.

Braggadoe , are you using actual news paper tubes ??? If so where are you getting them and how much is the cost ,,,, I've been buying the green poly boxes from Trapper Gords and Halfords ,, but they are sure costly .. I like the plastic but need to find a cheaper suply outfit . Thanks.
