Troubleshooting

Netting is sagging or not staying in place.

Small holes or tears appearing in the netting.

Repair minor tears with UV-resistant tape or by carefully weaving the monofilaments back together. Inspect regularly for potential damage points.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unroll the netting and position it over your plants or garden area. Secure the edges using garden stakes, rocks, or pegs to create a complete barrier. For taller plants or rows, consider using a frame or poles to support the netting and keep it elevated. Ensure there are no gaps where pests can enter.

Compatibility: This netting is compatible with most garden setups, including raised beds, vegetable patches, fruit trees, and flower gardens. It can be used independently or in conjunction with other garden structures.

Care: To maintain the netting's integrity, periodically check for any tears or damage. Clean the netting by gently rinsing it with water if it becomes soiled. Store it in a dry place during the off-season to prolong its lifespan. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could degrade the material.
