The netting kept the birds away! I have three blueberry bushes next to each other. This netting was not only superb in keeping the birds out, but, also the chipmunks. The height and length covered the bushes whereas the extra netting at the bottom allowed to be tucked under. This prevented any critters to crawl under and compromise the fruit. So worth the purchase made.

Product is strong enough to do what I wanted. I didn't go with the commercial grade because of the cost. We'll see how this holds up. The work was setting up the support system to securer it. If it doesn't last due to UV etc it's easy to change/upgrade but so far works great.

Don't buy this product! It does not measure 100' x 14' as stated. I purchased a roll the other day and never finished my project because the actual measurement was 66' x 14'. Shame on BirdX for misrepresenting the amount of product in the box. Home Depot should pull this product from their website immediately as a liability. The box shipped directly from BirdX and was labeled 100' x 14' standard bird netting but the roll was 34' shy of being a full 100'.

I thought the fabric was going to be thicker. It's not much better than the really cheap stuff.

We have a seasonal issue with mallard ducks in our outdoor pool. Used the netting to cover the pool at ground level. Found the material of the netting to be strong while easy to cut to fit the contour of our in ground pool. We would recommend for purchase.

This is a great price for a product far superior to what you can get in the store. It is heavier weight than the 7' wide rolls (I think they are 50' long) so it does not tear easily. I am going on my third season with this as row covers in my veg beds. I had to toss the lighter weight stuff after one year (am I'm replacing it with this stuff).
To keep it from tearing when I put the PVC clips on, I placed a small piece of 6mil. plastic between the clip and the netting. That also makes it easier to remove the clip.
Because this is 14' wide, and folded on the roll, it is easy to cut in half, or quarters, length-wise for 3.5' or 7' wide fabric, so a little goes a long way as row covers.
Another advantage of this material over the lighter weight stuff is that the lighter bird netting is very fine and has trapped, and unfortunately killed, a couple of small birds. This stuff does not seem to ensnare them, as it is stiffer and does not stick to them up if they hit it.

Keeps pigeons out of the barn
Staples in place easily. Seems pretty durable. I'd buy it again.

good product
Put this over my chicken run. Got two layers on iit since it is thin. But one would probably do. A lot left over to use for other things.

Just what I needed
We had a problem with birds in a parking garage. We removed the old damaged ceiling and replaced it with the bird netting. Our problem was solved. It was light weight and easy to install.

Perfect
This product was exactly what I was looking for. A lightweight but effective deterrent to the birds. You can't even tell its there either.

NO NO NO NO
Bought this for blueberries. Right off the roll it grabbed onto everything in sight, my feet, the grass, weeds, a stray bunny. I tried draping it over the blueberries and it immediately grabbed onto the leaves and bunches of berries. Trying to adjust it ripped bundles of berries and leaf clusters right off.
If you have a full bottle of wine for after, try first setting up a full support to drape it over so it won't touch the plants. Start with 2 very calm - sedated preferably - people to hold the netting, and a spotter or 3 to keep it free from grass, weeds, feet, trees, buildings etc in the vicinity while a few more helpers position it on the support. Have bribes ready to enforce calm - you'll need them.
I rolled it back up complete with grass plants and blueberry twigs, vowing to plant more berries and share.

Does work
I bought this to keep birds off some grape vines in the back yard. Works great. However I will look for a string type net for next year. The nylon mesh catches on everything. It was like a wrestling match to get the netting laid out. It is more of a two person job. But it does get the job done

Perfect for our needs
About this time every year we are overwhelmed by mexican fruit bats keeping the insect population under control. This results in a lot of bat waste (guano and urine) on our decks. So we used this netting to block access to the decks and it has been 100% effective without blocking our view or injuring the bats.

Great buy for the price.
It's what would be expected for the price. Not industrial quality, but not the cheap netting that can be found in store. It is a good balance.

Birdnet
The bird net worked well and the package was more than adequate for the use in our garden spot. It was a little more that we anticipated it trying to put it up. We had to cut it and tie it together to fit our application.

Seems to be very strong
I bought this for an outdoor pavilion I use in my business to display my new lawn mowers for sale. I need to keep the birds out of there.
This review probably won't be helpful to many, because I haven't put it up yet and I can't say how well it works.
That being said, the material this mesh is made out of seems to be a very strong type of plactic. When I opened the package, I wanted to test the strength of the material. So I stuck an index finger from each hand in one square and tried to pull it apart. I didn't pull as hard as I could, but if I'd tried much harder, either the material would've broken or the skin on my finger would've broken. I'm not sure which. I think this will hold up very well after I put it up.
There are mounting clips for sale with this netting. In my opinion, the cost is prohibitive, since you can't buy any fewer of these than 250. I decided I'd try to staple it up instead. After testing the strength of the netting material, I'm more confident that staples will work just fine.
I'll have to add to this review after I've actually used the product as I intended.
