This cage is designed to protect against larger garden pests such as pigeons and crows, and in rural areas, it can also deter smaller deer.
Yes, all necessary components are included, including poles, connectors, netting, and pegs.
Yes, the versatile height of the cage allows it to protect various crops, including lower-lying fruit bushes.
The poles connect using the provided UPVC connectors. Ensure they are pushed together firmly for a secure fit.
The frame is constructed from lightweight, robust aluminium tubing.
You can clean the aluminium poles and UPVC connectors with a damp cloth. Ensure the netting is also kept clean to prevent disease spread.
For larger areas, you can purchase additional kits and connect them or arrange them adjacent to each other to create a larger protected zone.
Ensure all poles are fully inserted into connectors and that the netting is securely pegged to the ground, tautly applied to the frame.
Inspect the netting for any holes or gaps. Ensure the netting is tucked under or pegged securely all around the base to prevent entry.
Contact the retailer or Marshalls Garden customer service with your proof of purchase to arrange for missing parts to be sent.
Setup: Unpack all components: aluminium poles, UPVC connectors, netting, and pegs. Follow the included diagram to connect the poles using the provided connectors, forming the desired cage structure. Drape the netting over the frame and secure it firmly to the ground using the pegs, ensuring no gaps for pests to enter.
Compatibility: This starter kit is designed for general garden use and is compatible with most vegetable patches and allotment plots. It is ideal for safeguarding individual beds or smaller block sections of crops. For larger areas, consider purchasing multiple kits.
Care: To maintain the cage, periodically check that all connections are secure and the netting is free from tears or damage. Clean the aluminium poles and UPVC connectors with a damp cloth if necessary. Store the netting rolled and protected during the off-season to extend its lifespan.
