Coveside Sparrow Resistant Bluebird House

Approved by the North American Bluebird Society, this bluebird house is designed to deter sparrows. Some studies have shown that bluebirds prefer a slot entrance to the standard circular hole entrance and sparrows prefer the opposite. Also, sparrows tend to avoid shallow homes so the Sparrow-Resistant Bluebird House was constructed to be only 5″ deep and includes a wooden insert to adjust the depth to a mere 3-1/2″. Sparrows will avoid this depth, but bluebirds will still occupy the house.
