Product Information

Full details

The Pegdev Strawberry Netting is an essential garden tool for home gardeners and hobbyists looking to protect soft fruit harvests from birds and pests without the use of harmful chemical deterrents. This UV-stabilised, fine-mesh netting ensures your strawberries, raspberries, and vegetable patches remain undisturbed while allowing essential sunlight and air circulation to reach your crops; however, users should exercise caution when placing the net near small wildlife to ensure they do not become entangled in the fine mesh.

FAQs

Can I cut this netting to a smaller size?

Yes, the netting is designed to be easily cut with standard household scissors to fit any garden layout or bed size.

Is this netting safe for organic gardening?

Absolutely. It provides a physical barrier, eliminating the need for chemical pesticides or deterrents.

Does it restrict water or sunlight?

The mesh is fine enough to keep pests out but open enough to allow water, sunlight, and air to reach your plants.

How do I store the netting for winter?

After the growing season, clean off any debris, allow it to dry completely, and store it in a dry, shaded location.

Can this be used on fruit trees?

While it is primarily intended for ground-level crops and bushes, it can be used on smaller trees if draped carefully to avoid damaging branches.

Troubleshooting

Netting is snagging on plant stems.

Ensure the netting is pulled taut over a frame rather than resting directly on delicate fruits or thorny branches.

Birds are still reaching the plants.

Check that the edges are fully secured to the ground with pegs and verify that no large gaps exist between the netting and the garden bed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • UV-stabilised for long-term outdoor durability
  • Easy to trim to fit custom garden layouts
  • Allows full sunlight and air circulation
  • Lightweight and simple to drape over plants
  • Reusable for multiple growing seasons

Cons

  • Requires careful installation to avoid entanglement with wildlife
  • Not intended for heavy-duty security against larger burrowing animals
  • Must be anchored securely to prevent displacement during strong winds

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your netting, measure the area to be covered and cut the material using sharp scissors, leaving a small margin for overlapping if joining multiple sections. When draping over frames, ensure the mesh is pulled taut enough to maintain shape but loose enough to accommodate plant growth.

Compatibility is broad; it works well with wooden raised beds, metal wire hoops, and PVC piping structures. For care and maintenance, avoid dragging the netting over sharp gravel or rough brickwork, which may cause fraying. After the harvest concludes, gently shake the netting to remove any trapped leaves or debris, fold it neatly, and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to extend its lifespan for future years.
