Sparrows are great birds! Most all birds eat pesky insects! Shame on you for wanting to kill little birds!  Also sparrows are food for other birds too, like hawks! It is not a good idea to mess with Mother Nature! She will GET you in the end!

I have never in my life heard of a sparrow being a nuisance!!  Lindilou is dead-on...stop feeding the birds.  Sparrows are song birds..their diet is much the same as other song birds!!!  Sparrows are good luck!  

PS In most of the continental US it is illegal to kill song birds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Climb a pole with high voltage lines. Touch the wires. For an even warmer sensation, make sure your hands are wet. If that works, then extend a wire or add to it, and route it to the feeder. Trouble is, you might not get that far. Great question, though! A "big brother", huh? If your little sibling(s) is/are  a nuisance, what would you do? Maybe we can turn this into a dating site. If you're interested, I might have a match. There's a gal in Al(abama), on this site, who wants to know about burning down a neighbor's shed.

 

"big brother": We haven't heard from you since 8/6. Did you ever get to climb that pole?

I'll bet you were a nuisance at times to your parents........best leave the animals alone, I'm sure they're not only safer, but happier without your "act of kindness"

Your question is disgusting. If you're going to kill birds, then you SHOULDN'T  have a bird feeder ! In fact, you shouldn't kill ANY animal.......b/c animals are like us.........they have a soul and feelings.They are living, breathing, beings.

I like your idea!  Go for it!  What most people don't understand is that the House sparrow (passer domesticus) sometimes called the ENGLISH sparrow is a bird not originally found in the Americas.  It was introduced in New York city in 1850 and our House sparrow population has descended from these. It is an aggressive bird and has proliferated here to the point of overpopulation.  Its "song" is nothing but a monotonous chirping when compared to an actual song sparrow or warbler.  It competes with and takes prime nesting spots and food away from more desirable native birds; some that are on the verge of species survival.
