Product Information

Full details

The Pegdev Butterfly Netting is an essential garden tool for home growers and allotment holders looking to protect brassicas and leafy vegetables from cabbage white butterflies and other insect pests without using harsh chemicals. By providing a durable physical barrier, this lightweight netting allows essential light, air, and moisture to reach your plants, ensuring healthy development. While it is highly effective at stopping pests, users should note that the netting requires a proper support structure or careful draping to ensure it does not snag on plant stems or thorns.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this netting block sunlight?

No, the netting is designed with a fine mesh that allows sufficient light for photosynthesis while keeping insects out.

Can I leave the netting out in the rain?

Yes, the material is weather-resistant and rot-proof, so it can be left outside during rain without degrading.

How do I cut the netting to size?

You can use standard household scissors to cut the netting. It is designed not to fray once cut.

Will this keep out smaller aphids?

This netting is specifically designed for butterflies and larger insects; very tiny pests like aphids may still pass through the mesh.

Is this netting suitable for winter use?

It is intended for growing season protection, but it can be stored easily during the winter months for future use.

Can I reuse the netting next year?

Yes, as long as it is cleaned and stored properly, the durable material is designed for multiple seasons of use.

Troubleshooting

Netting blowing away in the wind

Ensure the edges are buried or secured using heavy-duty garden pegs or landscaping staples every 12 inches.

Pests appearing inside the netting

Check the perimeter for gaps and ensure no lower branches are touching the ground where pests can enter.

Netting snagging on plants

Install a raised frame or hoops to keep the netting elevated above the foliage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents egg-laying pests without chemical sprays
  • Allows water and sunlight to reach crops freely
  • Lightweight and easy to cut to custom dimensions
  • Weather-resistant and rot-proof material
  • Simple to fold and store for off-season storage

Cons

  • Requires a frame or weights to prevent shifting in high winds
  • Can snag on rough plant stems or garden debris
  • Does not provide frost protection for delicate seedlings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, clear the area of debris and ensure your plants are upright. Place your support structures, drape the Pegdev Butterfly Netting over the top, and anchor the edges firmly to the ground to keep pests from crawling underneath.

For maintenance, avoid using sharp tools near the mesh that could cause tears. If the netting becomes soiled with soil or mud, simply rinse it with a garden hose and let it air dry completely before folding it away for winter. Storing it in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight will extend the lifespan of the material.
