Pigeon nets for windows: what Tondiarpet homes face
Droppings on the window damage paint and corrode metal, and dried droppings become airborne dust. The sea breeze carries salt this far inland, so untreated metal fittings corrode much faster than in inland suburbs.
Densely packed old buildings share walls and parapets, giving pigeons an unbroken chain of perches. Repeated cooing and flapping near the window disturbs sleep, especially at dawn.
How we fit pigeon nets for windows in Tondiarpet
Window nets are cut to the frame and fixed with concealed clips so the finish looks tidy from inside. A final walk-round checks each anchor and seam for anything a bird could use as an entry point. The net is tensioned so it stays taut and does not flap, which also keeps it neat and quiet in the wind.
Typical properties in Tondiarpet include old row houses, tenement-style apartment blocks and small industrial units, 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.
Keep this in mind: Factory chimneys and port-side activity keep air quality poor, so balcony surfaces need frequent cleaning.
What to ask any installer before you agree:
- Ask whether the net can be lifted or opened for cleaning windows and AC servicing.
- Look for UV-stabilised material, so the net does not turn brittle and snap in Chennai's summer sun.
- Choose mesh of about 40 to 50 mm for pigeons, since a larger mesh lets small chicks slip in.
