Veggiemesh Insect Plant Protection Netting

Veggiemesh netting keeps insect pests off your crops. Veggiemesh will also protect your crops from mild frosts, wind, hail, and heavy rain while letting the air, water, and feed through. Veggiemesh needs removing during flowering if crops depend on pollination by bees. Veggiemesh can be washed on a "wool" cycle in the washing machine. It should last at least 10 years. This netting does not fray and can be cut using scissors or hot knife. Veggiemesh is light enough to be laid directly over your crops but also works perfectly over hoops or cages. Mesh can be secured with pegs, clips or edges can be buried. Cover plants or seeds immediately after planting or sowing (ensure plants are free from insect pests) and leave covered until harvest. Always allow enough slack for the plants to grow, the edges can be buried or secured with pegs ensuring there are no gaps.
