Product Reviews
I'm about to renew my bird netting after 10 years. It didn't last intact for 10 years due to rabbits on the allotment biting through it so I had to reinforce the bottom of it with rabbit fencing. I wondered about using the more expensive bird netting but having seen the way mice chump through fairly sturdy plastic I think this netting and replacing rabbit fencing around the allotment is more secure to protect it from rabbits and rodents. I wondered about replacing it with narrower butterfly proof netting but that would keep out the bees and many pollinators so I'll just cover brassicas in the fruit cage with a smaller veg cage with finer netting.
The Heavy duty bird netting is excellent for stretching over a wooden fruit cage and stapled into place (see pic). It is also good for hanging/stretching over an aluminium frame to protect peas - used cable ties to secure net to poles. Doesn't tangle, is strong and rigid but flexible Just check that the edges have been cut straight.
