A physical barrier, with no aggressive control methods
Why bird netting
Birds strike when the fruit is worth the most
Birds feed on crops and damage the fruit just before harvest, when the whole season’s investment has already gone into it. The result is lost production and lost money at the worst possible time.
Bird netting is the most effective barrier: it keeps birds out without affecting ventilation or light, and reduces the need for aggressive control methods. We install it tailored to each crop, in knotted or woven versions, with UV treatment.
