Anti-Bird Netting 5m x 100m | The Olive Centre – Crop Protection Against Birds & Bats

Anti-Bird Netting is a high-quality knitted drape-over and side netting solution that provides reliable protection for fruit trees, vineyards, and vegetable crops against birds and fruit bats.
Manufactured from UV-stabilised High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) monofilament, it offers exceptional resistance to tearing, fraying, and degradation under sunlight exposure. The 15 mm diamond mesh structure forms a physical barrier that prevents bird entry while allowing airflow and light penetration to maintain healthy crop growth.
Lightweight yet durable, this netting is easy to install, reposition, and remove, making it ideal for both seasonal and long-term use across orchards, gardens, and agricultural sites.

Uses

Anti-Bird Netting is designed to protect fruit trees, vines, berry crops, and vegetable plants from damage caused by birds and flying pests such as fruit bats. It is suitable for drape-over installations, side netting, or permanent structures. The product is widely used in orchards, vineyards, nurseries, and garden enclosures, ensuring crop safety during ripening and harvest periods. It is also effective for home gardens and commercial farms that require an environmentally friendly deterrent without the use of chemicals or noise devices.

Installation and Maintenance

The netting can be draped directly over crops or installed along trellises and support structures using clips, ties, or anchor systems. Its flexible knitted design resists tearing during installation and can be tensioned for a snug fit. When the season ends, simply roll and store the netting in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight. The UV-stabilised HDPE ensures that the material retains its strength and flexibility for multiple growing seasons, offering long-term cost efficiency.

Whether used on small garden plots or large commercial orchards, Anti-Bird Netting offers peace of mind by keeping fruit intact and crops market-ready. Designed to meet the needs of professional growers and hobbyists alike, it combines strength, coverage, and simplicity in one dependable product.

Frequently Asked Questions

For reliable protection, Anti-Bird Netting should be installed before fruit ripening, when birds and bats begin to visit crops. It can be used as a drape-over net for small trees and vines or attached to trellis and support structures using clips, pegs, or cable ties for larger installations.

To ensure complete coverage:
  • Overlap netting edges by at least 20–30 cm to prevent entry gaps.
  • Anchor the base securely with weights or ground pegs to prevent wind lift.
  • Use the contrasting centre line to align the net evenly across rows.
  • Avoid stretching the mesh too tightly, which can reduce flexibility and increase tear risk.

After harvest, roll and store the netting in a cool, shaded area to extend its lifespan. The UV-stabilised HDPE ensures strength and reusability for multiple growing seasons.
Yes — Anti-Bird Netting meets Australian standards for wildlife-safe crop netting. The 15 mm diamond mesh design prevents birds, bats, and other wildlife from becoming entangled while still providing complete exclusion from crops.

Under the Australian Wildlife-Friendly Netting Guidelines (AS 4200.1:2017), mesh openings smaller than 25 mm are recommended for fruit and vineyard applications to avoid harm to native species. The knitted HDPE construction of this netting ensures a smooth, flexible weave that deters entry without causing injury.

For regions with strict wildlife compliance (e.g. Victoria and New South Wales), the 15 mm mesh structure aligns with current legal requirements for commercial and domestic orchard use, providing a safe and effective bird management solution.
The UV-stabilised High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) used in this netting is engineered for long-term outdoor use under harsh sunlight and varying weather conditions. With proper care and storage, the material typically lasts up to 8–10 seasons without significant loss of strength or flexibility.

To maximise lifespan:
  • Wash or brush off debris before storage.
  • Dry completely to prevent mildew or odour.
  • Store rolled in a cool, dry, shaded area, away from rodents and sharp objects.
  • Inspect for minor tears before each season and repair with netting patches or twine.
This simple maintenance routine ensures consistent protection year after year, offering a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to chemical deterrents or temporary netting systems.
