{"title":"Sparrows","description":"\u003cp\u003eSparrows were first introduced to New Zealand in the 1860's, but quickly came to be regarded as a pest. Also known as flying mice they are found all over New Zealand, except in high mountainous and bushy areas, and are one of the most abundant bird species in New Zealand.  \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSparrows live close to humans as they are dependent upon them for food, as much of their diet is human food scraps. They also eat; grain, cereal, buds, nectar, fruit and seeds, and are fond of ripe fruit, in particular cherries, grapes and peaches. They are a bold, intelligent, gregarious bird, and would happily come right up close to people. They work together well, setting off a racuous that warns everyone if predators come near.  It would be extremely rare to find sparrows away from habitation. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo all they are a pest. In the agricultural industry for damage to crops, but also in and around food outlets, nicking whatever little pieces of food they can find - even if its off your plate. Also they are very messy nesters, and can cause mess and health and safety issues in and around buildings.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"sparrow-trap-multi-capture","title":"Sparrow Trap - Multi Capture","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eGet rid of pest sparrows with this easy to use, multi capture sparrow trap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis trap has 2 compartments, an entry compartment with 2 one-way doors, leading into a second trapping compartment.\u003cbr\u003eUse bait like bread, wheat or grain - near to and leading into the trap.
