Before anything is quoted

We look at the property before we put a number on it

A price list cannot see your marble, your ducts, or the wall the afternoon sun hits. So we come and look. A senior member of the team surveys the property, and you receive a written quotation the same day, itemised, with what is included and what is not.

No obligation. If we are not the right company for the job we will say so, and tell you who is.

  1. 01
    The survey

    We look at the property, not a price list. Usually the same day you ask.

  2. 02
    The written quote

    Fixed, itemised, and sent the same day. What is included, and what is not.

  3. 03
    The work

    A named supervisor and a crew you will see again. Our own equipment and materials.

  4. 04
    The walkthrough

    We walk the property with you before the team leaves. Anything not right is dealt with then.

About this service

What is bird control & netting and what does it include?

Cleaning it off works for a fortnight. They come back because the roosting site is still there.

Pigeons in Dubai are relentless about a good ledge, and once a pair has nested somewhere they and their offspring keep returning to the same spot for years. The damage is not just mess on a balcony. Droppings are acidic and corrode metalwork, they block AC condenser coils and drainage which directly costs cooling performance, and the nests themselves carry mites and create a genuine hygiene issue directly outside a bedroom window. Cleaning it repeatedly is treating the symptom of a site that is still available.

Exclusion is the only thing that actually ends it, which means physically denying access rather than deterring. We survey where they are landing and where they are nesting, which are frequently different places, then specify the right system for each: tensioned netting across balcony openings and plant areas, spike systems on ledges, parapets and signage, post and wire on narrow runs, and purpose made cages around AC condenser units that keep birds off the coil without restricting airflow. Fixings are chosen for the substrate and for salt air exposure, and everything is installed to be as visually discreet as the situation allows.

Signs you need this service

Droppings accumulating on a balcony, ledge or parapet
Nesting material visible on or near the AC condenser
Cooling performance dropping with fouling on the coil
Birds roosting on the same ledge every evening
Noise from a nest near a bedroom window
Corrosion staining running down a facade
Mites appearing indoors near a nesting site
Repeated cleaning that solves nothing

What is included

  • Site survey identifying roosting and nesting points
  • Full clean down and disinfection before installation
  • Nesting material removed and disposed of safely
  • Tensioned bird netting to balconies and plant areas
  • Spike systems to ledges, parapets and signage
  • Post and wire systems on narrow runs
  • AC condenser cages that maintain airflow
  • Fixings selected for substrate and salt air exposure
  • Discreet colour matched installation where possible
  • Follow up inspection after installation
Good to know. The clean down has to happen before the exclusion goes up, and it should be done with proper protection. Dried droppings should not be dry swept.

Benefits of doing it properly

  • Access physically denied rather than birds merely deterred
  • Condenser coils stay clear, which protects cooling performance
  • Corrosion damage to metalwork and facades stopped
  • Nesting material removed and the area disinfected first
  • Fixings suited to salt air, so the system lasts
  • Visually discreet where the elevation matters
  • One visit ends a problem that repeat cleaning never will
  • Follow up inspection included

How the process works

01

Survey

We identify where they land and where they nest, which are usually two different places.

02

Written quote

Fixed and itemised by area and by system, with fixing method stated.

03

Clean down

Fouling removed and the area disinfected, with proper protection, before anything is installed.

04

Installation

Netting tensioned, spikes and wire fixed, condenser cages fitted without restricting airflow.

05

Airflow check

We verify the condenser is not restricted, because a cage that chokes a unit is worse than the birds.

06

Follow up

We come back and check the system is holding and nothing has found a way around it.

Frequently asked questions

How much does bird control and netting cost in Dubai?

There is no fixed rate card. Price follows the size and condition of the property, so a senior member of the team surveys it first and you get a written, itemised quotation the same day. The figure on that quotation is the figure you pay.

Who does bird control and netting near me in Dubai?

MELLS covers ninety communities across Dubai and works in Abu Dhabi and Sharjah for commercial premises. Message +971 58 656 3001 on WhatsApp with your community and we will confirm availability.

What is the best bird control and netting company in Dubai?

Judge any company on three things: whether the team is directly employed or subcontracted, whether the quote is fixed in writing before work starts, and whether a supervisor walks the property with you at the end. MELLS does all three as standard.

How quickly can you start bird control and netting?

Survey usually the same day you ask, quotation the same day, and work scheduled within forty eight hours in most cases. Urgent call outs are handled the same day where the team is free.

Is bird control and netting safe for children and pets?

Yes. Products are selected for occupied family homes as the default, re entry times are told to you before we leave, and anything stronger is only ever used with your agreement.

How do I get a quote from MELLS?

Message us on WhatsApp on +971 58 656 3001 or call the same number. A senior member of the team surveys the property and you receive a written itemised quotation the same day.

Which areas of the UAE does MELLS cover?

Ninety communities across Dubai for residential work, and Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah for commercial premises.

Will spikes or netting harm the birds?

No. These are exclusion systems, not lethal ones. They make the ledge unavailable so the birds move on to somewhere they are not causing a problem.

Will a cage on the AC unit affect cooling?

Not if it is made properly. The cages are specified to keep birds off the coil while maintaining airflow, and we check the unit after fitting.

Why does cleaning it not work?

Because the roosting site is still there and available. They return within days, which is why exclusion is the only thing that genuinely ends it.

Is bird fouling actually a health issue?

It can be. Nests carry mites, and dried droppings should never be dry swept. That is why the clean down is done with proper protection before the exclusion goes up.

Can netting be discreet?

Reasonably. It is available in colours that read as almost invisible from ground level, and we take the elevation into account when specifying it.
