Why Tambaram properties need pigeon nets for duct areas
Big campuses and abundant trees around Tambaram keep crow, myna and parakeet numbers high across the area. Pigeons roost on a sheltered duct area within days of it being left open, and each pair can raise several broods a year.
Spikes, gels and sprays only move pigeons for a short while, and the birds soon return to the duct area. Balconies in the older independent houses are often shallow, so the netting has to be measured precisely to fit.
Local notes for Tambaram homes
Tambaram is one of Chennai's largest southern suburbs, built around its busy railway junction on the GST Road. It is home to the Tambaram Air Force Station and Madras Christian College, whose large green campus is one of the biggest wooded areas in the southern suburbs.
In Tambaram, homes near the railway junction and markets see the most pigeons, while those close to the college campus and green areas see more crows and parakeets. Shallow balconies in older houses need precise measurement, so we cut and fit each net on site rather than using standard sizes.
Our pigeon nets for duct areas installation approach in Tambaram
For duct areas we net across the openings while leaving pipes and cables free to be serviced. We measure the opening and choose a mesh small enough to keep pigeons out but still let air and light through. A final walk-round checks each anchor and seam for anything a bird could use as an entry point.
Whether it is independent houses or college-side residences, we walk the whole space first and note every gap a bird could use.
We inspect for existing nests and droppings, which should be cleared safely before netting.
Materials we use for pigeon nets for duct areas
Typical materials on a pigeon nets for duct areas installation are Knotless HDPE or nylon pigeon net, UV-stabilised binding cord, Stainless-steel hooks and clips and Corrosion-resistant fixing screws.
Worth knowing: Railway junction crowds and shops feed large pigeon populations in the streets nearby.
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 whether the net can be lifted or opened for cleaning windows and AC servicing.
- Insist that every edge is sealed, because a partial net simply moves the birds to the gap.
