However, when the young sparrow s have ju st come off the nests, a larger pro- portion of these newly hatched 'birds can be poisoned as well as caught. “English sparrow filth resulting from roosting in open machine sheds, barns and garages can be irritating. Installation of wire netting to block access to roost- ing spots has helped. We don’t know of any sparrow repellent for help in these roosting prob- lems.
