How heavy is a roll of netting?

Each roll weighs approximately 6kg, making it manageable for installation.

Can I cut the netting to a specific size?

Yes, the netting can be easily cut to your required dimensions using sharp scissors or a utility knife.

How do I secure the netting in my garden?

Troubleshooting

Netting tears easily

Ensure the netting is not stretched too tightly and is supported adequately to avoid undue stress. Handle with care, especially when cutting or securing.

Pests still getting through

Check for gaps at the edges where the netting meets the ground or structure. Ensure the netting is securely anchored all around.

Netting sags or droops

Add more support stakes or adjust the tension. Ensure the weight of the netting is distributed evenly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent protection against birds and insects.
  • UV stabilization ensures long-term durability.
  • Allows adequate airflow and sunlight for plant health.
  • Available in multiple lengths to suit different garden sizes.
  • Simple to install and requires minimal maintenance.

Cons

  • Rolls are relatively heavy (approx. 6kg), potentially requiring assistance for setup.
  • The mesh size, while good for pests, might allow very small insects through.
  • Requires proper anchoring to remain effective against wind and pests.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the netting, first determine the area you wish to protect. Unroll the netting, ensuring it is spread evenly over the plants or garden area. Secure the edges using garden stakes, pegs, or by burying the edges lightly in the soil to prevent pests from getting underneath. For larger areas, you may need to use supporting stakes or poles to keep the netting elevated and prevent it from resting directly on delicate plants. This netting is compatible with most garden structures, including raised beds, hoops, and frames. It can be cut to size using sharp scissors or a utility knife. Care involves occasional inspection for tears or damage and ensuring it remains taut. Cleaning can be done by rinsing with water if it becomes dirty. Store in a dry place when not in use for extended periods.
