This guide is for home gardeners looking to protect their fruit and vegetable crops from pests. The key benefit is robust protection against birds and insects, leading to healthier plants and a better harvest. A potential caveat is the need to remove netting during heavy snow or high winds. The Fruit and Vegetable Cages by Gardening Naturally feature a strong, lightweight, rust-resistant aluminium frame and offer various netting options, including bird, butterfly, and Veggiemesh, to suit different crop protection needs. They are designed for quick setup and allow sunlight and rain to reach the plants while keeping unwanted visitors out.

The cages stand 1.2m (approximately 3ft 11 inches) high once erected. The tubes are 1500mm (4ft 11 inches) long, with 300mm of this length pushed into the soil for the uprights.
You can choose from bird netting (available in black or green), butterfly netting (black and green), or Veggiemesh for smaller insects. There is also an option to purchase the cage with no netting.
The netting is designed to be laid over the cage and secured to the ground with pegs. It is not permanently fitted, making it easier to lift for tending to your plants.
Yes, alternative options for higher garden cages or walk-in cages are available. You can also explore options for building your own custom cage.
If snow or high winds are forecast, it is recommended to remove the netting to prevent potential damage to the cage structure.
No, the aluminium frame is specifically chosen for its rust-resistant properties, ensuring durability and longevity through various weather conditions.
The netting can offer a degree of wind resistance, which helps to strengthen your crops over time as they grow. It also serves its primary purpose of deterring pests.
Ensure the uprights are pushed sufficiently into the soil (300mm). For softer ground, consider using additional stakes or anchors for enhanced stability.
Adjust the netting by re-pegging it to the ground, ensuring it is taut. Check that all frame connections are secure.
Verify that the correct type of netting is being used for the specific pest. Ensure there are no gaps or holes in the netting and that it is securely pegged down around the base.
Contact customer support with details of the damage. The aluminium is rust-resistant but can be dented or bent under extreme force.
