25' x 50' Bird Netting Heavy Duty Nylon 3/4" Mesh Garden Netting Protect Fruit Trees, Plants and Vegetables

I bought this to hang around under my walnut tree to catch walnuts so my dogs couldn't eat them. It worked perfect. It's way bigger than I expected

I thought about making it a 4 star review because of the thinness of the nets, but in most applications not directly on berry bushes but these nets do their job and are a 5 star value compared to similar weaker nonwoven plastic nets. This is strong (but thin) woven nylon netting. The netting was well packaged with a cloth bag plus (10) plastic push stakes and a bag of plastic wire ties. (Neither of which I used). This netting is strong but also wire thin and not a good idea to put directly on berry bushes as it easily catches leaves, berries and branches. It's much better for an enclosure. I have an enclosure for my other berries, but for these two outlier bushes, I built standoff tees to keep nets right off the bushes, but I still stripped a couple of pounds of berries off the bushes installing. You get about 100% light transmission with these nets because of their thin weave, (which is not really neccessary for blueberries). I'm hoping they're cat proof too, for the errant bird that finds it s way under the nets. Cats easily rip up the cheap spun plastic nets going after trapped birds. I bury all edges and stake every few feet with 6" sod pins. Cat birds will charge the edges of the nets looking for a weak spot they can get under so better to cover exposed edges with soil or mulch, but this is a problem universal to all netting materials.

I did not have any issues with the net tangling like other reviewers noted, however, I do agree with other reviewers that the net does not have 25x100 of usable area. Before constructing my wooden structure, I verified that the net”s width and length were at least 25’ and 100’ without fully unraveling the net. My mistake was that I measured these dimensions separately and not with the net fully extended. There was 0% chance the net was 100’ long when stretched out to 25’ wide along the full length. My net was 105’ long when still coiled up, but very short when spread out. After being up for 6 weeks, it has held up well. I would expect a few blueberry seasons out of it, but may need to replace it due to it being too small. It did a great job of keeping birds out as described.

I bought this bird netting in my attempt to keep some of my crops from becoming food for birds, chipmunks and squirrels. After fencing off an area to keep the bunnies and my own dogs away from our garden area, I became faced with the problem of how to deal with the smaller creatures who also visit my garden ares and eat as much as their tummies will allow and this of course takes away from the crops we should be harvesting for our own wants and needs. Enter the bird netting, the 3/4 openings to keep the birds away and are also to small for the squirrels and chipmunks to get through so I am very pleased with this so far, the 3/4 inch openings are just large enough for the honey bees to pass through without any problem. The netting does not shadow the crops so they do get enough sunlight to keep the crops growing and producing. I have also noticed that the netting does not stay tangled and is easy to untangle when it does happen, the one flaw is nothing that can be helped however as 3 of our chipmunks have lost their lives when they attempted to pass through the openings and become tangled in the netting and choke themselves when they struggle to escape the net. I did however manage to save one of the critters as I was close enough when it got caught. Yes I am pleased and this winter I will build a wooden greenhouse frame to go over the tops of the 2 greenhouses I have and will use 1/2 " metal 2 foot tall hardware cloth across the bottom and this bird netting will be use to cover the roof and a big part of the side walls. This combination will be the very last step in my garden security from Mother Natures critter helpers.

So I have converted my pool into a koi pond. The koi are thriving and breeding but predators are an issue. I have been abke to keep all of them away with numerous methods from decoys I have imitation floating alligators I have all kinds of dangling Chimes and flashy things around the pool that work had to distract most animals from coming but my latest and greatest foe is a blue heron incredibly smart and also incredibly persistent and he's gotten a few of my koi so I have a small portion of square-shaped netting that I was able to cover a portion of the shallow end but I just wanted to cover the entire pool because I don't want there to be any possibility of me losing any more I've got hundreds in there and my biggest breeders are very valuable over 2 ft long at this point ...so I ordered this neting and it is nearly impossible to pull over my kidney bean shaped , nothing straight pool .As I pull it to get across the pool it .shortens the length of the opposite side and if you don't have it exactly pulled evenly every direction the dimensions change dramatically. I have volcanic rock all along the back of the pool and it is different heights and shapes as well so having to pull it over these sticks to them like crazy and it just completely screws up the dimensions and now I have messed with it for over 3 hours and I am so fed up I'm going to order some plaatic or or polyurethane based Square cut poultry cover like I had before that I was able to do by myself no problem whatsoever. I even had my daughter trying to help me with this crap and it's not working whatsoever and I even brought it to the street to try to square it off and staple it to straight boards and it still is a mess. On top of that I can tell that the make of this stuff if it were to dip into the water it would be like Gill netting and hook onto the fish's gills and more than likely kill them so saying this is good option for a protective pond netting it's a drastic mistake. FYI I owned and operated a hardwood flooring business for over 20 years and have been involved in everything you can imagine to do with construction for years .. also currently have 15 aquariums running and have had multiple and I have been obsessively involved in fish keeping my entire life so this is not a rookie thing ... stuff is just not not a good option

Good product

I bought this to go over my chicken run to protect them from predators. We live in northern Canada where it snows a lot and gets very cold. I ended up keeping it up all winter and there is very minimal damage. It is over all sharp corners of the coop and fence and it hasnt ripped in any of those areas. Very impressed with this so far. Sizing is also correct.

very good quality

You name it, it gets caught in it. We used the net to enclose our catio. Installed in July and have had to fix many holes with tie straps. This is something you don’t want to have end up in landfills. Terrible for the environment and wild life. Find another solution

I was so focused on the overall size of the net I didn’t see how big the squares are. This net won’t stop small birds at all. I returned this net
