Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this netting safe for my fish?

Yes, the netting is designed to be safe for fish by providing a barrier against predators while still allowing light and oxygen to pass through.

Can I use this to stop my child or pet from falling into the pond?

No. This product is a decorative and maintenance aid and is not rated to support the weight of children or pets. Always use dedicated safety covers for fall prevention.

Will the edges fray if I cut the net?

No, the netting is specifically manufactured to be cut to size without fraying.

Can it be left out all winter?

Yes, the UV-stabilized and rot-proof material is designed for long-term outdoor exposure throughout the year.

How do I remove leaves from the top of the net?

For best results, wait for the leaves to dry and simply shake the net, or use a garden rake to gently sweep the debris off.

Troubleshooting

Netting sagging into the water

Ensure the netting is pulled taut across the surface. Use additional pegs or stakes to secure the edges more firmly to the ground.

Predators still reaching the fish

Check that the edges are completely flush with the ground. Add more weights or pegs around the perimeter to eliminate gaps that animals could reach under.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your Pegdev netting is straightforward. Simply spread the mesh over the desired area, ensuring it covers the entire pond perimeter with some overlap to allow for securing. You can use garden pegs or heavy stones to hold the edges down, ensuring the net is taut to prevent predators from finding gaps. If the net is too large for your specific feature, use sharp scissors to trim it to size; the specialized mesh design prevents the edges from fraying. To clean the netting, simply shake off accumulated leaves once they have dried, or use a gentle spray from a garden hose to rinse away fine silt. Store the netting in a dry, shaded area when not in use to extend its lifespan.
