      Thx for the response Tammy – yes it’s supposed to be repeating as well. I have both out there, and will continue to them all season. Live in the country and have nesting Bluebirds, Tree Swallows by the pond & Purple Martins. My wife is from the country and I never understood her people’s distain for sparrows – they were farmers. I do know now…… :)

        Not on FB – I’m in IT. Get enough computers and not much of a fan of SM. Feel this is much different – educational at the very least.

          Thanks to everyone – I actually bought a Kage-ALL trap and having all kinds of success with this trap. The one from SparrowTraps.net has only one tally – and that was only after I baited with a female from the Kage-ALL trap. Weather hasn’t really broken here – guess I’ll wait and see what the spring brings.

          I did have it on legs (~2 feet) above the ground, trap is anchored to a piece of plywood. I may put it back on the legs…….

            Thx for the advise – I’ve changed my feeders (outside of the thistle) to just sun flower and safflower. I’ve baited the trap with crack corn and white millet, but also put in some nesting materials. Thanks again.

              I’m in the Bi-State area of St. Louis. On the Illinois side in the country….. How do U “Sparrow-poof” a feeder? I remove the cheap feed and only filled with Sunflower & Safflower.

              Thx for the info.
