Why are Birds Attracted to Your Gazebo?

We’ve found that although gazebos are a beauty to look at, they provide ample protection for birds to nest, rest, and hide. Depending on the construction of your gazebo, the underside support beams typically provide a plethora of space where small birds like to nest. Incorporating the bird control products listed below can drastically reduce the bird activity you are experiencing.

Note: It is important to clean away nesting materials and droppings thoroughly before installation of products.

How to Stop Birds from Nesting in Your Gazebo

We’ve found that 3/4" bird netting is the most effective solution for nesting birds in almost all situations. We don’t necessarily mean installing a net on all sides of the gazebo. That would look a little tacky but still very effective. For gazebos and similar type structures recommend installing the net across the ceiling to prevent birds from nesting in these above head spaces. This type of bird net installation is highly effective and allows you the freedom to enjoy the beauty of the gazebo without any of those pest birds.
