Product Information
Full details
The Kingfisher General Purpose Garden & Pond netting is an essential tool for home gardeners and pond owners seeking a durable, long-term solution to protect their outdoor spaces. Measuring 4 x 2m, this rot-proof, tangle-free mesh is ideal for shielding fruit crops from pests or keeping pond water clear and safe from predators; however, users should note that the 4 x 2m dimensions are fixed and may require joining multiple sheets for larger garden beds or ponds.

FAQs
Can I cut this netting to fit smaller areas?
Yes, the mesh can be cut to size using garden shears or heavy-duty scissors without significant fraying, thanks to its specialized construction.
Is the netting strong enough to keep out large animals?
This netting is designed to deter birds, butterflies, and small animals. It is not intended to act as a security fence against larger pets or wild animals.
Will the green color fade over time?
The netting is UV stabilised to resist color fading and material breakdown when exposed to sunlight for long periods.
Does it come with fixing pegs?
No, the package contains the netting mesh only. Fixing pegs or garden ties should be purchased separately based on your specific ground conditions.
How do I prevent the net from touching the water in my pond?
We recommend creating a simple framework using flexible piping or wire supports to hold the netting above the water surface.
Troubleshooting
Netting sagging over the pond or crop
Use central supports, such as bamboo canes or hoops, to create a frame that keeps the netting elevated.
Pests getting under the edges
Ensure the reinforced edges are flush with the ground and pinned down at 30cm intervals using appropriate ground pegs.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Resistant to rot and UV degradation for extended service life
- Tangle-free design simplifies the setup process
- Reinforced edges ensure stability when pegged down
- Effective at deterring predatory birds and butterflies
- Helps prevent excess leaf debris from polluting pond water
Cons
- Fixed 4 x 2m sizing may not fit all custom garden layouts
- Requires separate purchase of ground pegs or ties for installation
- Can be damaged by extremely sharp garden tools if handled carelessly
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, lay the netting over your desired area and use garden staples or ties along the reinforced edges to pull the mesh taut. If covering a pond, ensure the edges are weighed down or pegged into the surrounding soil.
Care Instructions
- Periodically inspect for trapped leaves or twigs and remove them to keep the netting lightweight.
- Before storing for the winter, shake the net to remove debris, fold it neatly, and store in a cool, dry shed to preserve the UV coating.
- If the net requires cleaning, gently hose it down with water; avoid using harsh chemicals or pressure washers.
