50 mm Black Bird Netting for Pigeon Control
This bird netting is a durable, humane and highly effective solution for pigeon and large bird exclusion in residential, commercial and industrial environments. Made with 50 mm mesh, this black pigeon netting provides a physical barrier that prevents birds from accessing and roosting on buildings, balconies, ledges, roofs, gardens, public spaces and other vulnerable areas.
The dark finish helps the netting blend discreetly with urban and architectural features, making it less visible from a distance while still offering robust protection against persistent bird pressure.

How to Install Bird Netting
Correct installation ensures long-term performance and reduces the risk of birds becoming trapped:
-
Plan the Layout:
Measure the area to be protected and determine the required net dimensions.
-
Build a Support Framework:
Use wire rope, perimeter lines or fixing frames so the netting can be tensioned tightly.
-
Attach Netting:
Secure the net to the framework with hog ring staples, clips or fasteners at regular intervals.
-
Ensure Tautness:
The net should be tight to prevent sagging, which can trap birds or create gaps.
-
Trim Excess:
Cut away any surplus netting once installation is complete.
For best results across large spans or architectural structures, professional installation is recommended.
