Who makes a good repeating sparrow trap. Seen some with bad reviews.
Seen a couple on WCS website one to expensive the other not so bad, but wondering what the experience has been.
Gota barn full of sparrows and looking for a quick fix. Thanks any advice appreciated.

Trapster is there a difference in the sled and the other standard Cage. I can call them but wondering perhaps you would know. Would prefer to go not that steep of cost if I don't have to. Also how difficult is it to clean the birds out after capture.

It can be a slow process trapping sparrows with any type of repeating trap or single catch trap. The birds need time to adjust to any new presentation. Lots of variables when working with birds and they get smart and avoid things at times. Depends on the time of the year and the conditions where you trap as to the success in numbers.

We mist net, shoot and trap in that order for most jobs with sparrow work.

When I was a kid, we used to take a bb gun after dark. If we did good for a couple of nights, it seem the rest would leave.
