Each roll weighs approximately 6kg, making it manageable for most users.
You can secure it around plants or garden beds using stakes, pegs, or by burying the edges. Ensure it is taut but not overly stretched.
Use more stakes or pegs around the perimeter. Ensure the ground is firm enough to hold the stakes securely. Consider using weights or burying the edges if staking is challenging.
Check for any gaps or tears in the netting. Ensure the netting is secured all the way to the ground without any entry points. Reinforce edges and corners where pests might find access.
Ensure adequate support structures (stakes, frames) are used. Adjust tension by re-securing the netting, but avoid over-tightening which can damage the mesh. For larger areas, consider adding intermediate support.
Setup: Unroll the netting carefully. Secure the edges to the ground using stakes, pegs, or by burying them slightly to prevent pests from entering from below. For covering plants or structures, drape the netting loosely to avoid stressing stems and allow for growth, securing it to frames, stakes, or hoops. Ensure there are no large gaps where pests could infiltrate.
Compatibility: This netting is compatible with a wide range of garden setups, including raised beds, ground-level plots, vegetable patches, fruit cages, and individual plants or small trees.
Care: To maintain the netting's integrity, inspect it periodically for tears or damage. After the growing season, clean off any soil or debris with a gentle brush or by rinsing with water. Store the netting in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prolong its lifespan.
