Soft Butterfly Netting for Preventing Cabbage White Damage Available in green or black, this netting helps prevent cabbage white butterflies from laying eggs on brassicas and other leafy crops. The mesh blocks access while still supporting healthy plant growth. It can also help reduce debris entering ponds and keep leaves cleaner. Understanding the cabbage white butterfly will help. Garden Netting with Fine Mesh for Vegetables The 5mm x 7mm mesh stops most butterflies and larger insects from reaching crops. Bees cannot pass through this size, so the cover should be temporarily removed during flowering if you grow plants that require pollination. The soft texture makes handling and positioning simple. UV Stabilised HDPE for Outdoor Growing The material is produced from HDPE and UV stabilised for longer garden use. It offers greater resistance to sunlight than thin plastic meshes and can be placed over plants, beds, cages, or simple frames without harming young leaves.

It can also be placed over ponds to reduce falling debris and deter birds.
