Good Morning,
I also have the same issue. I thought I had seen where someone had suggested putting fishing line on the boxes a certain distance (don’t know specifics) wide and from the entrance and perch that detracted the sparrows because they did not fold their wings as much as a bluebird thus limiting the box to be used by bluebirds. I am hoping the collective wisdom of the group may have some specifics on this that could be shared.
