Destroy the nest after the young have fledged. Do not, however, disturb the eggs or young of any native species, because they are protected by law. Only non native species like starlings or house sparrows can have an active nest removed.
Song Sparrows build a cup nest of weeds and grasses lined with hair and finer plant materials. The nest is often placed in a bush or small tree. Three to 6 eggs are incubated by the female for up to 2 weeks. Both parents care for the young who fledge in from one to 2 weeks. Song Sparrows may raise 2 or 3 broods in a breeding season.
Sparrows originally came from China. But, the climate started to change, and the sparrow migrated to North America. Today, the climate in China is slowly changing, but there is still very little sparrows there. (About 2%)

yeahhh
House sparrows and wrens often compete with bluebirds for the same nesting house. Often time sparrows will break bluebird eggs or make another nest over the current bluebird nest.
Yes - that is what happened to a house martin's nest on our house. The sparrows took over and hatched two babies. Sadly though the nest collapsed and it and the babies ended up on the lawn. So disaster.
House Sparrows tend to nest in and around buildings. They scavenge around domestic rubbish and also eat seeds. They are definitely attracted to bird feeders. They feed their young on small insects and inveterbrates.
Never known of a bluebird crawling, it would be difficult..To exclude house sparrows, make the entrance hole around one and a quarter inches across..Also, place the nest box no higher than five feet from the ground, sparrows won't nest so low.
No bluebird nest box is sparrow proof. You can however discourage sparrows from nesting there. Avoid places next boxes close to barns, feedlots, and farmsteads. These provide plenty off cover for sparrows. Sparrows may not like nest boxes made of PVC pipe because the interior is circle. They also dislike slot boxes.
you get weevils to your nest by pressing the weevil you want to invite and then press the picture of a house which means to invite them.

The house sparrow has many enemies. They must compete with other birds such as bluebirds for places to nest. Some of there other enemies include house wrens, crows, starlings, and even humans.
No they build a new nest for each brood. However they may use the same nest site year after year.
You can protect it by giving it a place to nest and protecting it from sparrows who will harass it.
