A cost effective solution to URBAN PEST BIRD PROBLEMS
A correctly installed net, whether used vertically or horizontally, and on virtually any part of a building, can solve almost all bird problems.
Net Fixing
Installing a net needs planning. You not only need to ensure that you have the right size of mesh for the bird species you are proofing against but that you have the right fixings to enable you to attach the net succesfully to the masonry, timber, steelwork or cladding periphery and also make it as unobtrusive as possible.
A wide range of fixings can be used. The majority are available in galvanised or stainless steel.
The stainless steel, unless otherwise stated, is 316 marine grade, and isthe superior product as it resists corrosion. Galvanised material can start to corrode soon after installation and should only be used when the proofing budget will not allow for the superior stainless steel material.
