SPARROWS REMOVAL CALGARY
CALGARY SPARROWS CONTROL
The house sparrow (Passer domesticus) or English sparrow was brought to North America about 1850 by early settlers. This bird is not a true sparrow but belongs to the family of weaver finches. lt is a distant cousin of our native sparrows. House sparrow is not protected in any province in Canada. The house sparrow is brown; chunky bird about 15 cm in length. The male has a grey brown crown surrounded by a chestnut mantle, and a distinct black patch beneath the beak and over the throat. The female lacks the throat patch and is a dull grey-brown colour with no sharply contrasting markings. Breeding is most common from April through August.
PROBLEMS DUE TO SPARROWS
Although sparrows can be useful when they eat weed seeds and insects, they have several annoying traits which classify them as pests. Where sparrows congregate near stored feed or poultry houses they contaminate feed with fecal droppings, feathers or nesting material and they carry insect parasites such as mites. When they roost in garages or machine sheds their fecal droppings mar the paint on cars and farm implements.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What do sparrows eat?
The food of the adult house sparrow is primarily seeds, but it also eats
leaf buds, fruits and seedlings. Nestlings are fed largely with insects.
Are any species of sparrows protected in Alberta?
There are 18 species of native sparrows which nest or migrate through Alberta and
which are protected under the Migratory Birds Convention Act. These species and their nests, eggs and
young may not be destroyed. The house sparrow, however, in not protected in Alberta.
How can we control infestation of sparrow in the area? Effective control begins in spring with the destruction of nest and the exclusion of sparrows from buildings. Screens or netting can be used to keep the birds from nesting sites and from high-value crops. Where only one or two birds gain entrance to a building they can be shot with an air rifle. Frightening devices can be used as a short term solution but sparrows adapt quickly and will not be repelled for long unless these frightening sights or sounds are moved frequently. Avitrol can also be used.
