😱 my mother, who was a birder her whole life, would have been ecstatic about this tippy entrance device. We have moved into Washington State recently and I have not seen that many English Sparrows so far, but I believe they re out there. This is wonderful.....congratulations to the inventor, what a device! Wonderful....

I am amazed at your dedication to the tree swallows. Bravo! Thanks for all you do for our native cavity nesters.

Have two of them and they work perfectly at keeping the sparrows out!

Thanks for the video. I put up some boxes this year for BlueBirds and a pair of tree swallows moved into one of them. They are beautiful birds. I was only able to watch your video up until

Absolutely brilliant idea

At the university I went to this presentation would easily suffice in satisfying the requirements for a Masters Degree. I've been agonizing over this House Sparrow takeover of my property. If I can justify the cost, this will be my next effort. Thank you David for sharing. 🤔 Whoops! Bummer! hyrunbeck web page went off line. 😮‍💨

great video!

I'm sold! I know what I'm going to get for next Spring seeing as it is too late now ( beginning June... )

Thank you for this 🤗 We have lost many chickadees over the last couple summers. Very heartbreaking

Good video thanks . Most of you watching this video are willing to trap house sparrows.And you will have to trap if you have Blue birds as the hole size needed for Blue Birds will not keep house sparrows out . If you do not want to trap then use a hole size that will keep house sparrows out , The 7/8 oval will keep all house sparrows out and still allow Violet green swallows in . The 15/16 in my area will keep most house sparrows out but not all , Tree swallows fit into the 15/16 oval . Or to keep the hole size/ shape simple the 1 and 1/8 round hole is the largest hole size you can go to and still keep house sparrows out .

I use the 12 gauge method

Thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting gadget, but I know how smart house sparrows are and I would think they too would eventually learn to adjust their weight one the pendulum to get into the box

Genius

Put the spooker up as soon as the first egg is layed. This way it doesn't risk them rejecting the spooker and it keeps the demon birds away for just enough time. Trap hosps in the meantime all year.

Please remember to put SNAKE deturant on the post of nest box & other predators deturant from getting to the chicks. Better to be safe than sorry. Thank you, very much! 🙏✌️❤️

Very good so informative. Thank you! We definitely have a problem here in Massachusetts in the US.

do you recommend the perch on TS boxes?

where can I get these?? Anyone know

Does this work with bluebirds?
