I'm curious as to how some of you handle House Sparrows at Bluebird
and Tree Swallow nesting boxes. I don't get many HS where I live, but
I have on occasion seen Bluebirds and Tree Swallows killed in the
boxes (not a pretty sight). The few times I've dealt with this problem
in the past, I simply removed the boxes until the HS went away, then
replaced the boxes and found Bluebirds and swallows coming back to
them later on.
Any new insights?
