FAQs

What size animals does this netting deter?

The 50mm x 50mm mesh is primarily designed to deter medium to large animals like deer, badgers, and foxes. It may also deter larger birds. Smaller animals might still be able to pass through depending on their size.

Is this netting suitable for permanent outdoor use?

Yes, it is made from robust UV-stabilised 80GSM plastic, which is designed to withstand outdoor conditions and sun exposure for an extended period.

How do I install this netting?

Install support posts (wooden or plastic) and securely attach the netting to these posts using fixings like zip ties or staples. Ensure the bottom edge is secured to the ground.

Can I use this netting around a pond?

Yes, it is suitable for covering ponds to protect fish from predators such as herons and foxes.

What is the mesh size of this netting?

The mesh size is 50mm x 50mm (approximately 2 inches x 2 inches).

Will the black color be noticeable in my garden?

The black plastic construction is designed to blend seamlessly into the natural environment, making it less visually intrusive than brightly colored or metal netting.

Can this netting be cut to size?

Yes, the netting can be cut to your specific requirements using sharp scissors or a utility knife.

Troubleshooting

Netting is sagging or not taut

Ensure fence posts are securely installed and spaced appropriately. Re-tension the netting and secure it firmly to each post.

Animals are finding a way under the netting

Secure the bottom edge of the netting directly to the ground using stakes, heavy stones, or by burying the edge slightly to prevent burrowing.

Netting appears damaged after installation

Inspect the netting for any tears or cuts. Small repairs can often be made with strong tape or by carefully weaving a piece of spare netting through the damaged area.

Difficulty attaching netting to posts

Use appropriate fixings such as heavy-duty zip ties, U-shaped staples (for wooden posts), or specialized fence netting clips for a secure attachment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides an effective barrier against deer and other wildlife.
  • Durable UV-stabilised plastic construction for longevity.
  • Lightweight and simple to install.
  • Versatile uses beyond just deer deterrence.
  • Subtle black color blends well with natural surroundings.

Cons

  • May not deter very small animals or birds from smaller gaps if they exist.
  • Plastic may become brittle over many years of extreme weather exposure.
  • Requires compatible posts for secure installation.
  • Mesh size might allow smaller pests if not properly secured.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Determine the area to be protected and measure the required length of netting.
  2. Install sturdy posts (wooden or plastic recommended) at regular intervals, ensuring they are securely anchored in the ground.
  3. Unroll the Deer Fencing Net Mesh and attach it to the posts using appropriate fixings (e.g., zip ties, staples, or specific post clips). Ensure the netting is taut to provide an effective barrier.
  4. Secure the bottom edge of the netting to the ground to prevent animals from burrowing underneath.

Compatibility:

This netting is compatible with both plastic fence posts and wooden fence posts. It can also be used with existing fencing structures to enhance deterrence.

Care:

To maintain the netting's condition:

  • Periodically check for any tears or damage and repair them promptly.
  • Remove any debris that may accumulate on the netting.
  • While UV-stabilised, prolonged exposure to harsh weather can eventually affect plastic. Store excess netting away from direct sunlight if not in use for extended periods.
  • Clean with a damp cloth if necessary, avoiding abrasive cleaners.
