[edit] Crop protection

Bird nets are used to prevent bird damage of vegetable and fruit crops as well as seedlings.[1]

Bird netting may be used to protect fisheries and fish wildlife reserves from predator birds.[2]

[edit] Building protection

Bird netting is one of the most effective and long lasting ways of bird proofing buildings and other structures against all urban bird species. It provides a discreet and impenetrable barrier that protects premises without harming the birds. Bird netting is particularly effective for large open areas such as roofs and loading bays [3].
