Using interest money to build an owl box

Q: Can a person use interest money to install an owl box and bat house on his property?

A: It is not permissible. Interest money should be disposed off through giving it to the poor without the intention of receiving any reward.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
