Is the frame suitable for all types of ponds?

Yes, the frame can be placed over raised ponds or directly on the ground around sunken pond systems. It is available in various sizes and shapes to suit most pond dimensions.

What material is the frame made of?

The frame is manufactured from 19mm aluminium tubing, making it lightweight yet durable.

How is the netting attached?

The netting is attached to the aluminium frame using the provided cable ties.

Troubleshooting

Frame appears unstable

Ensure all aluminium tubing sections are securely connected and that the frame is properly seated on the ground or pond edge. Check that cable ties securing the netting are taut.

Netting is sagging

Verify that the netting is evenly distributed and securely attached to the frame with the provided cable ties. Add more cable ties if necessary for better support.

Predators still accessing the pond

Confirm that there are no gaps in the netting or at the base of the frame where a predator could enter. Ensure the frame is tall enough to deter the specific predator.

Leaves are getting caught but not easily removed

Gently shake the netting to dislodge debris. For stubborn leaves, carefully remove them by hand or with a soft brush. Keep the netting clean to prevent build-up.
