A Strong Bird Control Product Bird Net

Posted on June 12, 2014 by Kathy Fritsch in Bird Netting

The use of a bird net is one of the strongest bird exclusion methods available. Bird netting is also highly versatile, denying pest birds access to almost any architectural structure, including overhangs, courtyards, parking garages, loading docks, and many other areas around your place of business.

The versatility of bird netting allows it to exclude virtually any bird species. The netting is manufactured in various mesh sizes to keep different sized birds out of a protected area; smaller mesh sizes are designed for smaller bird species. When installed correctly, the bird net is nearly invisible from the ground, ensuring your place of business or home does not look unsightly or wrapped up.

Strength and Technical Specifications

The bird net is engineered for long-term outdoor durability. It is constructed from high-quality treated polypropylene that is highly resistant to U.V. rays. Bird Net 2000 from Bird B Gone is a professional-grade, heavy duty bird net that is rot-proof, non-conductive, and flame resistant.

Versatile Hardware and Mounting Options

There is great versatility in how the bird net can be mounted to different structural materials. Various specialized hardware options are available to securely attach the netting to specific substrates:

  • Brick, Concrete, or Stone: Can be secured using anchor rivets or multipurpose cable brackets.
  • I-Beams and Steel Girder Framework: Can be attached using specialized girder clips.
  • Solid Steel Construction: Can be mounted firmly using eye bolts with lock nuts.

Color Options and Sizing

To further enhance its low profile, the bird net is available in three colors designed to blend seamlessly with the installation environment: black, stone, and white. Selecting the appropriate mesh size ensures the system remains completely effective against all target bird species. Netting can be ordered in standard stock sizes or custom cut to meet specific project dimensions.

The Importance of Proper Perimeter Installation

Correct installation is critical to maintaining both the effectiveness and low visibility of the netting. Improper installation can lead to sagging, which creates structural gaps that pest birds can exploit to gain entry. For large deployment areas, it is recommended to install a tensioned cable system around the perimeter of the structure and attach the bird net directly to this cable framework.

Specialized hardware is available to accommodate this type of support layout. This cable support system stretches the bird net tight, eliminating gaps and creating a solid, impenetrable physical barrier that humanely excludes pest birds from the designated area.

Proactive Integrated Bird Management

Pigeons, crows, starlings, blackbirds, sparrows, and swallows are highly persistent pests. They are instinctively driven to locate protected areas to roost and nest away from predators. Implementing reliable bird control products and systems is necessary when these species are present. To protect structural integrity and minimize cleanup expenses, it is always best to deploy a bird control strategy before pest populations become established.
