Birds love cherries, and they’ll eat every last one of them. For many commercial growers of cherries, sharing some of the fruit with the birds is unpleasant.

Unfortunately, birds have different ideas. They make the most of a handy food resource. They even invite their friends and family and eat every single piece of fruit.

Summer is in full swing and lots of us are enjoying our fruit trees. But as beautiful as they look, they’re not immune to pests. Each year more than 20% of the berries go to the birds. To that end, your crops are eaten even if insured.

It is a big blow to the economy. A bird invasion can completely wipe out your fruit orchard causing the farmer to lose tens of thousands of dollars.

So if you want to reliably pick your fruit each year, netting your trees is often the reality.

Protecting cherry fruit trees

Excluding birds with bird netting is one of the most effective methods of avoiding fruit tree damage. Netting will pay for itself in just a year or two by tripling yields. You install and maintain mesh properly to keep the pests away.

You should attach the netting to a reasonable quality frame to let you harvest and work on the trees without removing the net, as it will be cumbersome and time-consuming. Secure your mesh netting to the ground to stop the bird from flying under it. If you loosely drape the net over the large tree gives the bird access to the fruit even with netting in place, rendering your efforts fruitless.

Certain birds, such as grackles and ravens, can be harmful to plants. They may overwhelm trees and excrete a lot. Uric acid in the excrement is unpleasant and can corrode metals, paints, and other supplies. Repairs cost growers hundreds of thousands of dollars. In comparison, installing bird netting to avoid damage is a superb option
