FAQs

What types of pests does this netting protect against?

This netting is designed to protect against common garden pests such as insects (like caterpillars, aphids, and root flies) and birds.

Is the netting safe for my plants?

Yes, the open mesh construction allows for essential airflow and sunlight penetration, promoting healthy plant growth while offering protection.

How do I install the netting?

Simply drape the netting over your plants or garden beds and secure the edges to the ground using stakes, pegs, or by burying them. Ensure it's taut but allows for plant growth.

What is the material of the netting?

The netting is crafted from high-quality, UV-stabilised polyethylene monofilaments.

What are the dimensions of the netting?

The netting comes in a standard 2m width and is available in various lengths to suit your specific needs.

How much does a roll of netting weigh?

Each roll of our Heavy Duty Plants & Crops Protection Netting weighs approximately 6kg.

Can this netting withstand strong winds?

While durable, extreme weather conditions like very strong winds might require additional support or securing measures. It is not specifically designed as a windbreaker.

Troubleshooting

Netting is too heavy to manage alone.

Ask for assistance from another person or use lighter-weight netting if available for specific applications.

Pests are finding a way under the netting.

Ensure all edges are securely fastened to the ground. Bury the edges slightly in the soil or use additional stakes and weights around the perimeter.

Netting is snagging on plants or structures.

Handle the netting carefully during installation. Trim sharp plant parts or smooth rough edges of structures where the netting might catch.

Reduced sunlight reaching plants.

Ensure the netting is installed tautly. The open mesh design should allow sufficient light, but repositioning or ensuring the netting isn't excessively layered might help.
