Description: Once veraison (grape ripening) has set in, birds can be one of the biggest risks to your grape crop. Not only do birds eat valuable fruit, but the damage can turn into rot or disease that can spread to the rest of the bunch. Controlling grape-eating birds is an essential part of effective viticulture Bird netting is by far the most common and most effective method of grape protection, and is highly recommended for any vineyard with more than a few vines.
