What makes Mylapore different
Sparrows and small birds slip through wide-mesh netting and nest inside the window, so the mesh must match the bird. The temple tank and gopuram area support big pigeon populations that drift to neighbouring balconies all day.
Old houses on the mada streets have tiled roofs and inner courtyards that suit custom net layouts. Scare devices and reflective tape lose their effect after a few days once birds get used to them at the window.
Local notes for Mylapore homes
The temple area is famous for its pigeons, which are fed by visitors and roost on the gopuram and surrounding buildings. For nearby homes this means a constant stream of birds, while the sea breeze adds salt to the air that corrodes ordinary steel fittings over time.
Homes close to the Kapaleeshwarar Temple and its tank see pigeons throughout the day, and heritage houses offer them many sheltered ledges, courtyard edges and roof gaps. We design net layouts that follow the shape of these older buildings, including courtyards and sloping roofs, and use stainless fittings that stand up to the salty air.
Installing bird nets for windows around Kapaleeshwarar Temple
Window bird nets are fitted so that the window still opens, cleans easily and leaves the view intact. We first identify which birds are causing trouble, since that decides the mesh size. Net panels are cut to fit the space, then fixed with stainless hooks so there are no gaps to squeeze through.
Around Mylapore we work on traditional houses on the mada streets, older apartment buildings and heritage-style residences; each has its own ledges, gaps and fixing points that a bird will find.
We check the gaps between frame and wall, where small birds often nest.
What goes into a good bird nets for windows installation
Our bird nets for windows jobs use UV-stabilised HDPE or nylon bird net, Knotless netting for smaller mesh, Stainless-steel hooks and clips and Weatherproof binding cord.
A further point for this area: Proximity to the sea means salt in the air, so hardware needs to be corrosion-resistant.
What to ask any installer before you agree:
- Prefer stainless or coated fittings, which resist Chennai's humid air far better than plain steel.
- Ask for a net that can be opened at one point for cleaning without removing the whole panel.
- Match the mesh to the bird: roughly 25 mm for sparrows and mynas, larger mesh for pigeons and crows.

- Wash the net with water every few months to remove dust and residue.
