Fruit Tree Sleeves Netting Bags - Gardening Naturally - FTS

Yes, the high-quality Veggiemesh material is durable and can be washed and reused for multiple seasons if handled with care.

Absolutely. These sleeves are highly versatile and work well for grapes, lemons, plums, and other similar-sized fruits.

No, the netting allows 90% light passage, meaning the fruit can receive enough sunlight to ripen perfectly while remaining inside the sleeve.

While the mesh is excellent for insects and birds, it may not deter determined squirrels. It acts as a primary physical barrier but is not completely animal-proof against heavy gnawing.

Apply them shortly after fruit set, once the fruit is developed enough to be handled without damage, but before pests have noticed the ripening crop.

Ensure the branch is positioned centrally in the sleeve and clear away any twigs or leaves obstructing the zipper track before pulling.

Ensure there is adequate airflow by checking that the bag is not overstuffed with foliage and that the zipper is fully closed to prevent pests, but avoid wrapping the bag too tightly around the stem.
