Pigeon nets for balconies: what Nanganallur homes face
Pigeons roost on a sheltered balcony within days of it being left open, and each pair can raise several broods a year. Most houses have open terraces used for drying clothes, which are prime targets for bird droppings.
Temple visitors feeding birds keep pigeon populations high in the streets around the Anjaneyar Temple. Nesting material, feathers and dead chicks block drains, vents and ducts near the balcony.
How we fit pigeon nets for balconies in Nanganallur
For balconies we seal the net into the walls and slab, leaving a neat, taut surface with a discreet access flap if you want one. Net panels are fixed to the frame with stainless-steel hooks so there are no gaps a bird can squeeze through. We seal every edge, corner and junction with the wall, because pigeons search for the smallest gap.
Typical properties in Nanganallur include independent houses and duplexes, small apartment blocks and temple-adjacent residences, and birds use each of them differently, so we check where they land, nest and enter before deciding the net layout.
We check the slab edge and any old pigeon nests, which need clearing before the net goes on.
Choosing the right pigeon nets for balconies
For pigeon nets for balconies 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: Homes lie under the approach path to Chennai airport, so low-flying aircraft and birds share a busy sky.
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.
- Ask whether the net can be lifted or opened for cleaning windows and AC servicing.

Looking after your installation
A little regular care keeps pigeon nets for balconies working for years in Nanganallur:
- Hose the net gently every few months to wash off dust and any stray droppings.
- Keep plants and hanging items clear of the net so nothing tears or stretches it.
- Avoid feeding pigeons nearby, because a regular feeding point draws flocks back to the area.
