Sparrow Proof

Our House Martin Nest Cups have an entrance depth of 2cm which is too small for sparrows. However often the eaves on houses are not completely straight if this is the case we reccomend a sparrow topper.

You will see the term Sparrow proof topper in our descriptions

A sparrow-topper roof is not for weather protection; it’s small and designed only to keep the nest opening at 2 cm when the eaves don’t allow the cup to sit flush

If you havent got overhanging eaves order one of our false eave combinations in either wood or UPVC.
