Troubleshooting
Cage frame feels unstable
Ensure all steel connectors are tightly secured. Use the provided steel pegs to anchor the frame firmly to the ground. For very windy areas, consider using additional heavy-duty pipe clips.
Netting is not fitting correctly
Check that the frame is square and all tubing is fully inserted into the connectors. Adjust the tension using the netting clamps. Ensure you are using the correct size netting for your chosen frame.
Pests are still getting into the cage
Verify that the netting mesh size is appropriate for the pest you are trying to exclude. Ensure there are no gaps or holes in the netting and that it is securely fastened to the frame and the ground.
