19mm Black Bird Netting for Sparrow Control
This bird netting is specifically designed for controlling small bird species such as sparrows. Featuring a tight 19mm mesh size, this sparrow bird netting prevents smaller birds from accessing roof spaces, solar panels, warehouses and other vulnerable areas where larger mesh netting may not provide sufficient exclusion.
The discreet black finish allows the bird netting to blend into rooflines, eaves and structural shadows, making it suitable for both residential and commercial properties. By forming a secure physical barrier, bird netting offers a humane and long-term solution that prevents nesting and roosting without harming birds.
High-Strength 12/6 Knotted HDPE Construction
Manufactured from knotted black high-density 12/6 polyethylene twine, this bird netting provides excellent tensile strength and durability. The knotted construction enhances structural integrity, reducing the risk of tearing under pressure.
Unlike some materials, this bird netting does not absorb water. This means it will not stretch or sag during wet weather conditions. The HDPE material is chemically inert, offering resistance to rot, corrosion and environmental pollutants, ensuring consistent performance in demanding outdoor environments.
UV Stabilised for Long-Term Outdoor Performance
This bird netting is UV light stabilised for use in direct sunlight across all climates. The UV protection helps prevent degradation and brittleness over time, extending the lifespan of the installation and maintaining strength year after year.
When properly installed, bird netting provides reliable, low-maintenance bird exclusion for more than a decade.
Typical applications
This 19mm bird netting is ideal for:
- Roof eaves and soffits
- Solar panel protection
- Warehouse roof structures
- Agricultural buildings and barns
- Canopies and loading bays
- Commercial façades
The smaller mesh size ensures effective sparrow exclusion while maintaining airflow and visibility.
Installation Guidance
For optimal results, bird netting should be installed using a tensioned perimeter wire rope system with appropriate fixings suited to the building substrate. The perimeter cable must be securely anchored and correctly tensioned before attaching the netting using hog rings or net clips.
Keeping the bird netting taut is essential to prevent sagging and eliminate potential entry gaps. For high-level or complex installations, professional fitting is recommended to ensure safety and long-term performance.
