Mist nets series 700 are made from thin but durable nylon netting made in Japan. They have deep black color. Due to those features our nets series 700 are hardly visible in the field and very effective – they’re recommended for all habitats, including open spaces. Excellent for catching birds and bats.

Every net has its own serial number (put on the metal part of one of the green loops). This number helps to identify the owner of the net, for example when it is used improperly. Serial number is also important to reclaim the net.

Please keep the label with serial number!

High quality and efficiency of our mist nets are result of over 25 years of experience. They are continuously tested in various, often very hard conditions. We used them in every latitude, from Arctic to tropical forests and deserts… ECOTONE mist nets are made from high-quality nylon or polyester netting from Japan. For the nets series 2000 we use fine quality netting made in Poland.

Description

Mist net series 1000

Netting made in Japan NYLON D110/2

Mist nets from series 1000 are more durable and only slightly more visible than from series 700. They are also very effective. High quality Japanese netting remains black even after 500 days of a field work. They are highly recommended for long-term researches. Thicker netting is safer for the birds, and easier in use.

Every net has its own serial number (put on the metal part of one of the green loops). This number helps to identify the owner of the net, for example when it is used improperly. Serial number is also important to reclaim the net.

Description

Mist Net series 700P

Netting made in Japan D75/2

Polyester mist nets are highly weatherproof (avoiding moisture, and are UV proof). These nets are recommended for catching small birds and bats. They are barely visible and can be used in any habitat, including open areas. The netting is springy and doesn’t form standard shelves – it is an advantage when catching bats, because it is harder to echolocate polyester net than a classic net.

Polyester nets are highly effective at catching birds and bats.

Every net has its own serial number (put on the metal part of one of the green loops). This number helps to identify the owner of the net, for example when it is used improperly. Serial number is also important to reclaim the net. Please keep the label with serial number!
