Veggiemesh Insect Netting - 3.6m x 50m

Veggiemesh is a lightweight, fine-mesh barrier designed to protect plants while allowing air, light, and rain to pass through.

It protects against many common pests like flies, butterflies, moths, and aphids. For very small pests like flea beetles or whitefly, Veggiemesh Ultrafine is recommended.

You can lay it directly over plants or use it with garden hoops/cages. Ensure all edges are sealed to the ground and allow for plant growth.

For fruiting plants that rely on pollinators, you may need to temporarily lift the mesh during flowering to allow them access.

It is ideal for vegetables like brassicas, carrots, leeks, onions, peas, and salads, as well as soft fruits.

It offers protection against mild frosts, wind damage, and heavy rain, helping to create a more stable environment for plant growth.

You can clean it by rinsing with water to remove dirt and debris that might obstruct light and air.

Ensure sufficient slack was left during installation to accommodate future growth. Adjust or re-lay the netting with more looseness.

Check that all edges are securely anchored to the ground. Use additional pegs, soil, or rocks to seal any gaps.

Repair small tears using horticultural tape or by carefully sewing. Replace heavily damaged sections.

Clean the netting to remove dirt. Ensure the mesh is not too dense for the specific plants or conditions; consider if a finer mesh is needed for very small pests.
