Product Information

Full details

This Gardening Naturally Deer Netting is for gardeners and farmers seeking a humane and effective way to protect crops and plants from deer damage. Its key benefit is providing a strong, yet lightweight, physical barrier that prevents deer from accessing growing areas, helping to ensure a better harvest. A potential caveat is that successful installation requires proper tensioning and ground clearance to be fully effective, especially in areas with challenging terrain or high deer activity.

FAQs

Can deer netting be cut to fit awkward shapes?

Yes, you can trim the mesh with sharp scissors or secateurs to fit around corners, trees, or uneven edges. Tie the cut edge back to the nearest stake for a secure finish.

What fence height works best with deer netting?

For gardens, aiming for a taller line where local conditions allow can help discourage jumping and reduce pressure on entry points.

How should the netting be fixed to wooden posts?

Staples can fix the mesh to the post. Capping with a short batten afterwards helps spread the load and keep the mesh tight along the run.

Is deer netting safe around pets and wildlife?

The mesh has an open structure and low visibility. Keep it taut and at ground level to reduce snag points and check edges regularly around paths. Ensure no pets can become entangled.

Can the same roll be reused after the season?

Yes, provided it is rolled up dry and stored out of direct sunlight. Reusing the mesh for new layouts or temporary barriers is a common and effective approach.

Will deer netting cope with windy sites?

For windy sites, use closer stake spacing on exposed runs and add extra pegs along the base. Keeping the mesh tensioned properly helps reduce movement in gusty conditions.

What is included in the fence kits?

The deer netting fence kits are supplied complete with stakes, clips, and the netting itself, designed to help build a fence for small gardens and larger outdoor spaces.

Troubleshooting

Deer are still getting into the garden

Ensure the netting is taut, without significant slack. Check for gaps at the base or edges and reinforce with additional pegs or by lowering the netting. Consider increasing the height of the netting line if local deer pressure is very high.

Netting is sagging or loose

Increase the frequency of stakes or posts used for support. Ensure the netting is pulled taut during installation and re-tension as needed. Use battens on wooden posts to help maintain tension.

Netting is difficult to cut

Use sharp secateurs or heavy-duty scissors for clean cuts. Ensure the netting is laid flat before cutting.

Netting is accumulating debris

Keep the netting tensioned and clear of low-lying branches that could catch debris. Regular checks will help prevent buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unroll the mesh along your desired boundary. Secure it to stakes or posts at regular intervals using staples or clips. Ensure the bottom edge is close to the ground, using extra pegs for uneven terrain. For gates or openings, overlap the mesh generously to prevent gaps. For wooden posts, use staples to fix the mesh and then cap with a batten to distribute pressure and maintain tension.

Compatibility: This netting is suitable for vegetable plots, fruit cages, tree lines, and general garden boundaries. It can be cut to fit around existing structures like trees or corners.

Care: To maximize lifespan, roll up the netting when dry at the end of the season. Store it out of direct sunlight. The rot-proof material is designed for repeated outdoor use.
