Pigeon nets for balconies: what Pallikaranai homes face
Repeated cooing and flapping near the balcony disturbs sleep, especially at dawn. Tall apartment towers near the marsh have exposed upper-floor balconies where wind loads are high.
The marshland, a major bird habitat, means more crows, egrets, cormorants and kites in the surrounding sky than most suburbs. Nesting material, feathers and dead chicks block drains, vents and ducts near the balcony.
How we fit pigeon nets for balconies in Pallikaranai
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. We seal every edge, corner and junction with the wall, because pigeons search for the smallest gap. Where a nest or eggs are present, we advise on safe, humane removal before the net is fitted.
Typical properties in Pallikaranai include large gated apartment communities, independent houses and IT-employee housing complexes, 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.
Damp air from the wetland accelerates corrosion, so stainless or coated fittings are worth the extra cost.
What to ask any installer before you agree:
- Insist that every edge is sealed, because a partial net simply moves the birds to the gap.
- Ask whether the net can be lifted or opened for cleaning windows and AC servicing.
- Ask for knotless nylon or HDPE netting, which is gentler on birds and stays tauter than knotted net.
