BIRD NETTING
Bird activity around buildings is a common issue across London. Pigeons and other urban birds often gather in large numbers, leaving droppings that create mess, damage surfaces, and raise hygiene concerns. Once birds begin nesting or roosting on a property, the problem can escalate quickly.
Bird netting provides a simple and reliable solution. It creates a physical barrier that prevents birds from accessing ledges, roofs, and other nesting spots. At Beaver Pest Control, our experienced team designs and installs discreet systems that protect your building without disrupting its appearance or day-to-day use.

Find Out MoreHow Do Bird Netting Systems Work?
The principle behind a bird netting installation is straightforward. A steel wire perimeter, known as a wire rope, is fitted around the area that requires protection. This wire is attached at corners using specialist net bolts and crimps, while barrel strainers apply the necessary tension to keep the system secure. Intermediate fixings are added along the structure so the wire sits close to the building surface.
Once the framework is in place, the net is attached to the wire using hog rings. This creates a durable barrier that birds cannot pass through. Different mesh sizes are used depending on the bird species involved, allowing the system to provide targeted protection against common urban birds such as pigeons.
Our Netting for Birds Options
We install two main types of bird netting systems, both designed for durability and long-term performance:
- A traditional knotted polyethylene net provides excellent tear resistance and reliability. This type of bird-proof netting has been used for many years and remains a dependable solution for protecting large areas.
- We also install high-tenacity knotless polypropylene nets, which are lighter but even stronger. These bird nets offer excellent durability while reducing the weight on the structure.
Both net types are UV stabilised to protect them from sunlight and environmental wear. When installed correctly and maintained properly, they can protect for ten years or more, even in exposed conditions.
Nets are also available in different colours to minimise their visibility, which is particularly useful for sensitive locations or buildings where appearance matters.
Maintenance for Bird Netting
Like any bird-proofing system, regular maintenance helps ensure the netting remains effective. A technician can inspect your installation to check tension, identify damage, and remove any debris that may collect over time.
Routine checks help extend the lifespan of the system and ensure the netting continues to perform as intended. If repairs are required, they can often be carried out quickly to restore full protection.
Where Can Bird Netting Be Installed?
Bird netting is a versatile solution that can be used in a wide range of locations. It is particularly effective where large areas need protection or where birds have already established nesting sites.
Common applications include:
- Roofs and structural spaces: Bird netting prevents pigeons and other birds from roosting in roof voids, beams, and covered areas.
- Solar panels: Bird netting helps prevent birds from nesting underneath panels, which can block airflow and reduce efficiency.
- Gardens and residential areas: Bird netting helps protect outdoor spaces like gardens, balconies, and terraces, where birds may gather.
- Commercial and industrial buildings: Many businesses use bird-proof netting to protect warehouses, hospitality venues, construction sites, retail premises, and other properties across London.
