Bird Netting in Nerul

When birds move onto your balcony

It starts with one pigeon on the railing. Soon there is a nest behind the AC unit and droppings on your clothes line. Birds settle wherever they find shelter, and once they have nested somewhere they keep coming back. Balconies, ledges, window sills and ducts on Nerul buildings all offer that shelter, whether you live in an old low-rise or a Seawoods tower.

The droppings make a mess, can spoil what you store outside and can spread disease. Nests can block drains and openings. Cleaning helps for a day or two. A net is what really stops it, because the birds can no longer get in.

Why there is no price on this page

It really does depend on your balcony. The size of the area and how easy it is to reach both change the cost, so we would only be guessing over the phone. Send a photo on WhatsApp if you want to start somewhere. If you also have webs on the same balcony, mention it, and read about spider control in Nerul.

• What is the price of bird netting in Nerul?

  We give the price only after a site visit, because it depends on the size of the area and how easy it is to reach. Call 80979 41077 or send a photo and rough measurements on WhatsApp, and we will fix a visit. You see the quote before any work starts.

• Will the net hurt pigeons?

  No. The net is there to keep birds out, not to trap them. If there are nests with eggs or chicks in the area, please tell us before fitting day. The work can then be planned around them, and no bird gets shut in behind the net.

• How many years will a bird net last?

  That depends on the net, on sun and rain, and on how exposed your balcony is. We have not put a number on this page because it varies. Ask at the site visit which net suits your place, how long you can expect it to last and how to look after it.

• Will a bird net spoil my balcony view?

  You will know it is there if you look for it, but it does not block light or air. If the view matters a lot to you, say so at the site visit, and the person looking at your balcony can tell you what your choices are.

• Do I need society permission for a bird net in Nerul?

  It depends on your society, because many have rules on what can be fixed to the outside of a building. Check with the committee before the visit. If several flats or a whole wing want nets, the society can ask for one site visit and one quote for all of them.

• Can you put nets on ducts and ledges too?

  A net can go wherever birds are getting in, as long as it can be reached safely. At the site visit, please show every spot where you see birds or droppings, including ducts, ledges and the space around AC units. We will tell you what can and cannot be done.

• Why not just clean the balcony and shoo the birds away?

  Because they come back. Once a pigeon has found a safe place, it returns to it, and its droppings and nest material keep building up. You end up cleaning the same corner every week. A net takes away the shelter without hurting the birds, and that deals with the real cause.

• What happens at the bird netting site visit?

  Someone looks at the area where birds are getting in, takes measurements and suggests which net would work there. Show them everything that bothers you and ask how the net will look once it is up. You get the quote after this, and nothing is fitted until you agree.

• What material is the bird net made of?

  We have not named a material here, because the net is picked at the site visit, based on your space. Different openings can need different nets. Please ask at the visit what is being offered for your balcony and why, and have it included in your written quote.

• Can bird netting and pest control be booked together?

  Yes. Tell us all you need when you call. If you want a net on the balcony and also have lizards or webs in the same place, mention both. We can then tell you whether it can be looked at on one visit or will need two separate ones.
