Bird Netting

Easier and looks better than the hoops with the white fabric.

If the squirrels are digging up your plants, this will stop them. "Bird netting" is for more than just birds.

i did not use the netting for it's intended purpose but it worked perfectly. I needed something to put around my arbor posts so that my Clematis could grow up them. We cut the mesh and then stapled strips on the posts. Now my Clematis has something to cling to and it is flourishing.

I was so pleased that I recommended it to a friend and she has already purchased some.

I used this to cover my strawberry plants-- I rigged it over wire hoops, also from Gardener's. I went away for the weekend-- just 48 hours-- and found three beautiful lizards strangled/dead in the mesh when I got back. This is just over a 6x3 area. Don't use this on the ground!

I don't use this netting for birds, but to repel rats, lizards, and squirrels. But for the purpose of repelling the above mentioned creatures it works fine. It is a hassle when harvesting the tomatoes however.

I used this over my 2 year old blueberry plants and got more berries than the birds, yay! I didn't use supports though so when harvest was done it was real messy and had to pick leaves and stuff from the netting. I'll try the supports for next season.

It is a very good product, but you really need 2 people to get it properly covering the plant. It can tangle you up if you are not careful walking around it. But all in all it does what it is susposed to do and that is keep the pests away from your vegetables or fruits.

We have purchased three nets so far to keep the turkeys from munching our grapes. I like the small size of the mesh compared to the netting that you can buy from our local retailers. These nets have been used for three seasons and seem to be holding up well, without tearing. We wait to put them on until some of the fruit starts to ripen so we don't have too much trouble with the vines attaching or growing through the mesh. Our only problem so far was with frustrated turkeys getting under the mesh and squalking because they thought they were trapped. However, they quickly learned how to escape and fly out when we approached the garden.

I have a 20" Diameter container of NJ Highbush Blueberries on the back deck and the bird netting worked to keep all of the birds out, but the most determined birds, the Catbirds and the Carolina Wrens learned to reach through the net for their snacks. Next year, I'll make a frame or have poles around the plant so that the birds can not reach in to grab the berries.
Great product, but I still have to get more creative to outwit a bird...
