Product Reviews
Ordered, received and put up in 4 days, good quality, good price and does the job.
The mesh is quite small and seems to stop everything getting in which is just what I need. There haven't been many butterflies around yet this year but they wouldn't get in if there were. My sprouts and brocolli are looking amazing - not a holey leaf to be found. I am using the net on an 8ft by 4ft raised bed and it fits easily with plenty spare round the edges to raise up as the plants grow. Well worth the money.
