FAQs

What is the mesh size of this netting?

The mesh size is 25mm (approximately 1 inch).

Is this netting suitable for very small pets like mice?

No, the 25mm mesh is too large to contain small pets like mice effectively.

Can this netting be used for permanent outdoor fencing?

Yes, the galvanised construction provides good resistance to the elements for durable outdoor use.

How do I handle the netting safely?

It is recommended to wear sturdy gloves during installation as the cut edges can be sharp.

What tools are best for cutting this wire netting?

Strong wire cutters or tin snips are recommended for cutting the netting.

Can I use this netting in a vegetable garden?

Yes, it's suitable for protecting vegetable gardens from pests like rabbits and larger birds.

Troubleshooting

Netting is difficult to cut.

Use a strong pair of wire cutters or tin snips specifically designed for metal. For tougher sections, a multi-tool with cutting capabilities may be necessary.

Netting sags after installation.

Ensure adequate support posts are used at appropriate intervals. Re-tension the netting and secure it firmly to the posts, possibly adding more fixing points.

Rust spots appearing.

This is a natural process for galvanised products over time. For minor spots, you can clean the area and apply a metal-specific rust inhibitor or paint. Ensure good drainage and airflow around the installation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and weather-resistant due to galvanised coating.
  • Flexible and easy to cut and shape for custom installations.
  • Provides effective containment for poultry and small animals.
  • Helps protect gardens from larger pests.
  • Cost-effective solution for various fencing needs.

Cons

  • Mesh size (25mm) may not be suitable for very small animals or to exclude tiny pests.
  • Galvanised finish can eventually degrade over many years, especially in harsh coastal environments.
  • Requires appropriate tools and fastening methods for secure installation.
  • Can be sharp if not handled carefully during installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unroll the netting carefully, ideally with gloves, to avoid sharp edges.
  2. Measure and cut the required length using wire cutters or tin snips.
  3. Secure the netting to posts, frames, or existing structures using heavy-duty staples, wire ties, or U-nails.
  4. Ensure all edges are securely fastened and there are no gaps where animals could escape or pests could enter.

Compatibility:

This netting is compatible with most standard fencing posts (wood, metal) and can be integrated with other garden structures. It is suitable for use directly on the ground or attached to frames.

Care:

To prolong its life, periodically check for any signs of corrosion, especially at cut edges or fixing points. Clean off any debris that may trap moisture. No specific lubrication or maintenance is typically required beyond visual inspection.
