20m x 5m Sparrow Net, Knotted - Stone
Knotted Sparrow Netting for Linear Coverage
Our 20m x 5m Stone Sparrow Netting is an excellent solution for keeping sparrows away from and off your property.
With a mesh size of 19mm, it's designed specifically to prevent these birds from entering or nesting in buildings and gardens, and also for use as aviary bird netting. This mesh size is recommended for sparrows as it doesn't trap or harm them, but simply deters them from entering or landing.
The knotted net design has been used for added resistance and durability, ensuring it holds up in demanding environments.
Additionally, the bird net material is made from high-quality polyethylene that's chemically inert, rot-proof, and UV-stabilised, providing you with the confidence that it will withstand the elements and offer reliable protection for many years.
This net is supplied in a precut 20m x 5m size, so it’s excellent for linear coverage or side anti-bird protection where width is restricted but length is essential, such as:
- Protecting the side of long greenhouses or polytunnels from sparrow entry
- Running along eaves or rooflines of commercial or agricultural buildings to block sparrow nesting
- Covering narrow garden beds or fruit cages where length is needed more than width
- Securing fencing or trellis areas to stop sparrows from accessing crops or enclosed spaces
- Fitting under long building canopies or loading bays where smaller birds often roost
- Screening open balconies or terraces in hotels, restaurants, or schools with a long frontage
The stone sparrow netting colour is also preferable in areas where natural stone, brick, sand, or other light-coloured materials are used in construction, as it offers a more seamless and unobtrusive appearance.

3 Step Bird Netting Installation Guide
Setting up your bird net is simple: you will build a wire frame around the area, then clip the net to the wire.
1. Place Your Fixings
- Put Main Fixings every 10 meters and at every corner/turn.
- Put Intermediate Fixings in a straight line between the main ones.
2. Run and Tighten the Wire
- Start: Loop the wire through your first main fixing and secure it with 2 grips or ferrules.
- End: At the other end, loop the wire into a barrel strainer, hook the strainer to the main fixing, and twist to tighten the wire.
(For runs over 10 meters, add a criss-cross wire for extra support).
3. Clip on the Net
- Use a cable tie to anchor the corner of the net to a corner fixing.
- Pull the net tight and square, then clip every single mesh loop to the wire using hog rings.
Quick Tips
- Stainless Steel vs Galvanised: We highly recommend Stainless Steel (304 or 316 grade). Galvanised wire is cheaper but will rust much faster.
- Get the Right Fixings: Make sure your screws/plugs match your surface (wood, brick, metal, or cladding).
