Pigeon nets for windows: what Alwarpet homes face
Droppings on the window damage paint and corrode metal, and dried droppings become airborne dust. Premium buildings expect discreet, well-finished work, so neat cutting and concealed anchors matter.
Tall old trees along TTK Road and C.P. Ramaswamy Road feed the crow and myna populations around nearby balconies. Bird mites and ticks from old nests can move into homes through open windows and balcony doors.
How we fit pigeon nets for windows in Alwarpet
Window nets are cut to the frame and fixed with concealed clips so the finish looks tidy from inside. We measure the opening and choose a mesh small enough to keep pigeons out but still let air and light through. Net panels are fixed to the frame with stainless-steel hooks so there are no gaps a bird can squeeze through.
Typical properties in Alwarpet include premium apartment buildings, older heritage-style bungalows and boutique commercial buildings, and birds use each of them differently, so we check where they land, nest and enter before deciding the net layout.
We look for gaps between the frame and wall, where pigeons often squeeze in.
Choosing the right pigeon nets for windows
For pigeon nets for windows we normally supply Knotless HDPE or nylon pigeon net, UV-stabilised binding cord, Stainless-steel hooks and clips and Corrosion-resistant fixing screws.
A further point for this area: The sea breeze reaches Alwarpet, so exposed steel needs to be a marine-grade stainless grade.
What to ask any installer before you agree:
- Choose mesh of about 40 to 50 mm for pigeons, since a larger mesh lets small chicks slip in.
- Ask for knotless nylon or HDPE netting, which is gentler on birds and stays tauter than knotted net.
- Look for UV-stabilised material, so the net does not turn brittle and snap in Chennai's summer sun.

- Hose the net gently every few months to wash off dust and any stray droppings.
