I just built one of these in Australia. Baited it with bread and for two days, nothing. Then I get up today and it has two sparrows in it. thanks for sharing your design.

[punji73]

i need to build one of these as those darn sparrows are getting ready to nest outside my bedroom window!!

[kennewickdevildog]

Just built a sparrow trap following this video. My doesn't look pretty since I did it with scrap wood. If it works, maybe I'll get some decent wood and build a pretty one!

[reejakannanchandu]

she is cute man

[PassauOli]

why dont u build them and sell them for people to buy and maybe build bigger ones for magpies or pigeons? because i have a pigeons and i want to get rid of them but do not have to material to build it.

[KnighTnGunZ]

I built one nearly identical to this one and it didn't work.

That little kid is doing great jobs as it scripted & the guy explained it very well.

Great Video.

Two Thumbs Up ! P.S. He should give $20 bucks for that kid for whatever she wants to use. ; )

They are prolific and aggressive birds that thrive at the expense of small native birds.

Purple martins and other birds like blue birds (and any bird using a nest box) can be kicked out of their nest, babies and all, or left in pieces by these nasty critters.

They can form a nest colony in your attic or near where you eat and piles of their droppings, feathers, mites and other stuff can cause great harm and make you sick.

Thanks - I know it needs a cage etc, but this is just the mechanism. As I said I tried this cause I cant seem to make an elevator that well. Im in the 'all into the garbage and start again' stage. I should just buy one and be done with it!

[kennnmoran]

I have thought up a different type of mechanism, have a look at 'kens sparrow trap', I'll bet it takes off!

[aloreza123]

@kennnmoran u nead a cage arround ur trap but its quite good and birds are outside so steel cans are gonna rust nice try but think more

[biodot88]

@kennnmoran - I like your mechanism very much. Way to think out of the box!!! The cans are economical but I would also test with some hardware cloth cylinders. I think the repeating sparrow trap is a great idea but it needs improvements such as yours. Nice job.

[kennnmoran]

@biodot88 Thanks, Im honoured! I havent go it going yet, too many other projects and renovating the house. The guys with the elevators are way in front of me at the moment, but Ill get there

This trap works really well with the sturdy pvc lift. The trap got some house sparrows, but mostly contained song birds and some greyish finch, what should be put in the bait to catch mainly house sparrows? I placed sunflower seeds and a bit of bird feed that are for parakeets. What should be there to get mainly house sparrows? Thanks again.

[biodot88]

@bchk1031 millet or corn or bread

[Pyrofish22]

i made this it works great look at my video i gave all the credit to u.

[Pyrofish22]

hey thank u for making this vid its great im in the process of making mine and i cant wait to try it out

[LEONNIGHT7]

GOOD, I HAVE MANY DAYS IN VACATIONS FOR MAKE MY TRAP.

THANKS CHAMP

[sandpiper22]

A trap! I want to build sparrow houses so we have less mosquitos, send me your sparrows!!!

[biodot88]

@sandpiper22 try bat houses - bats need them and do a better job.

[BOBLOL00]

@sandpiper22 look, i have hundrets of sparrows in my yard that eat my chickens food, and i still have millions of mosquitos, so think twice before gathering sparrows in your yard, they eat my pea plants too, they are a disaster

[sandpiper22]

@BOBLOL00  I think I meant to say Swallows.....

[RushHourful]

No problem :)

[soccerfancrazy]

Thanx RushHourful i did that and i got 4 sparrows in about 30 minutes

[RushHourful]

U have to put a trap where u see lots of sparrow's go eg. next to a tree or on top of a shed or something like that hope it helps :)

[soccerfancrazy]

Thanks for the video i made one with my dad but unfortunley i only caught one on the first day. Can anybody message me with advice on how to set it and what position to also?

[RushHourful]

Thx for the video i made my own 1 and it turned out really good i caught 10 sparrows 1st day i put it out 10/10 good work
