A purpose-built home orchard netting system can help protect fruit trees from birds and other wildlife while reducing crop losses and creating a more controlled growing environment. Structures can be designed around existing trees, gardens, pathways and property access.
For larger or multi-use areas, netted enclosures can also be configured to accommodate chickens, ducks and other small livestock, providing additional separation and protection within the property.
Netting can form part of a broader approach to protecting home-grown fruit and managing pest pressure. In South Australia, PIRSA identifies exclusion netting as one of the most effective methods of reducing damage caused by pest birds.
For further information about pest birds and management options in South Australia, visit the PIRSA pest bird management guide.
Every property is different, so our residential and home orchard netting structures can be configured around the size, layout and intended use of the area.
Access options can include:
Whether you are protecting a few established fruit trees or creating a larger enclosed growing area, we can help assess the site and develop a practical structural netting solution.
