The Poppy Forge Pond Pest Protection Stakes are ideal for pond owners looking to deter herons and other predators from accessing their fish. These durable stakes provide a reliable physical barrier when paired with netting or wire, though users should note that they require additional materials to create a complete protective system.

They are designed for outdoor use and feature a protective coating, but like all metal garden products, they should be kept clean and dry when not in use.
No, this product includes the 10 stakes only; netting must be purchased separately.
We recommend placing them approximately 3 to 4 feet apart to ensure the netting remains taut.
These stakes are designed to be driven into soil. For concrete edges, you would need an alternative mounting solution like heavy-duty clips.
Each stake is 27.5 inches (698mm) tall.
Drive the stakes deeper into the ground or use a larger stone at the base to reinforce the position.
Decrease the distance between individual stakes or pull the netting tighter across the top of the supports.
Installation is straightforward: push the stakes into the soil surrounding the pond edge. If the ground is particularly hard, use a rubber mallet to avoid damaging the finish. These stakes are compatible with standard garden pond netting and heavy-duty garden twine. To care for your stakes, wipe off any mud or debris at the end of the season before storing them in a dry shed. If the black finish becomes chipped over time, a quick application of exterior-grade metal paint can prevent oxidation.
