Sparrow in building - 01/03/14 02:31 PM
I've tried mist nets, bird house traps, glue traps but there is one last sparrow evading capture. It is a strictly no shoot zone, even with a pellet rifle and to put it plainly, there is an overabundance of available food and water that is impossible to remove.
Has anyone here used a Foxpro or other caller to attract a sparrow to a particular area? I know Foxpro has a sparrow distress call, but I'm looking for a mating or rivalry call. The plan is to lure the bird into a particular smaller room that it has been frequenting, and then "close the door" on him.
It will be a lot easier to work the bird in that area than in 200,000 sq ft of trusses, exposed duct-work and sensitive areas.
Thanks.
