Veggiemesh Insect Netting for Vegetables - 2.6m / 1m - White

Veggiemesh provides protection against a wide range of common garden pests including cabbage root fly, carrot fly, cabbage white butterfly, pea moth, leek moth, cutworm, onion fly, and various aphids.

No, Veggiemesh is designed with a fine mesh that allows essential air, light, and rain to pass through to your plants, ensuring they can grow healthily.

The edges should be secured firmly to the ground using garden pegs, burying them in the soil, or weighing them down with stones to create a complete seal that pests cannot penetrate.

Yes, but for fruiting crops that rely on insect pollinators, you will need to temporarily lift or remove the netting during the flowering period to allow pollinators access. Re-cover the plants afterwards.

For smaller pests like flea beetles or whitefly, the standard Veggiemesh may not be sufficient due to their size. The Veggiemesh Ultrafine variant, with its tighter weave, is recommended for these specific pests.

Veggiemesh can remain in place from the time of planting right through to harvest, offering continuous protection throughout the growing season.

This specific product (VM260) is 2.6 meters wide and 1 meter long.

Ensure all edges are completely sealed to the ground using pegs, soil, or weights. Check for any gaps or tears in the netting and repair them.

Verify that the netting is not excessively compacted or stretched too tightly. The mesh should allow air and water to pass through freely. Check for debris that might be blocking the mesh.

Repair small tears using a needle and thread or appropriate garden tape. For significant damage, consider replacing the affected section or the entire netting.

Temporarily lift or remove the netting during the flowering period to allow pollinators access. Re-cover the plants once pollination has occurred.
