Product Information

Full details

The PDL Pegdev Protective Pond Netting is designed for homeowners and gardeners looking to maintain a pristine aquatic environment and protect vegetable patches from external elements. Its primary benefit is providing a robust, UV-stabilised barrier that stops leaves, debris, and predators such as herons and cats from compromising your pond or garden beds. While it is highly durable and versatile, users should note that the 3m wide mesh requires manual cutting and installation, which may necessitate separate purchasing of pegs or securing clips to ensure a taut fit.

FAQs

Can I use this netting for fish ponds?

Yes, it is specifically designed to keep fish safe from predators while preventing debris from entering the water.

Is the netting included with installation pegs?

No, the package contains the netting mesh only. You will need to purchase securing pegs or clips separately.

How do I clean the net?

Gently shake the net to remove loose leaves. If it becomes heavily soiled, you can rinse it with a garden hose and let it air dry.

Will this netting hurt birds or cats?

The mesh is designed to be a deterrent. If installed tautly, it prevents animals from reaching the protected area without causing injury.

Can it be left out all year?

Yes, because it is UV-stabilised and rot-proof, it is suitable for year-round outdoor use.

Can I cut this netting to fit my specific shape?

Absolutely. The material is designed to be easily cut with standard household scissors.

Troubleshooting

Netting is sagging in the center

Ensure the edges are pulled tight and consider adding support hoops or a central stake to create a slight slope for drainage.

Predators are still accessing the pond

Check that the edges are fully sealed to the ground with pegs and ensure there are no loose gaps where the netting meets the pond perimeter.

Netting becoming torn

Ensure the netting is not coming into contact with sharp rocks or jagged pond liners; trim any rough edges near the installation site.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy to trim to custom dimensions

Cons

  • Does not include installation pegs or securing clips

  • May sag if not pulled taut across wide spans

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Measure the area you wish to cover, adding 20-30cm of overlap on all sides to allow for secure fastening.
  2. Cutting: Lay the netting flat on a clean surface and use sharp, heavy-duty scissors to cut the mesh to your desired size.
  3. Securing: Place the netting over the pond or bed. Secure the edges using garden pegs or stones. It is recommended to use pegs every 50cm to prevent gaps that animals might squeeze through.
  4. Care: To extend the life of the product, remove the netting during extreme winter storms or high-wind events if it is not required. Periodically clear leaves and debris caught on top of the mesh to prevent it from sagging into the water.
