Birds' nest in attic crawl space


Any tips on how you would go about removing a large sparrows' nest from inside the craw space/attic under the eves of a house? The nest is the size of a small microwave and is made of mostly straw and grasses, but also seems to have some mud/clay properties to it.

After I remove the nest, I will be securing the space and putting mesh up to prevent it from happening again.
