Our nest box was occupied by blue tits earlier this year. Eleven eggs, nine of which hatched. They survived for a long time due to the tireless work of their parents, all observed by our camera in the nest. Three fledged and were picked off by a jay, and disgusting cats. The rest died in the nest box, I think due to some horrible mite infestation. Anyway, the corpses of the chicks are still in there, and I didn't hook up the tit-cam to have a look.
I can tip out the bones and the feathers, easily enough, but what should I do then? I don't think that the next tits would want to smell Febreze. Boiling water?
