Product Information

The tube also comes with a detachable cap, these can sometimes be referred to as Dolly's, which sits on the top of the tube. e. as opposite corners of the diamond are stretched widthways, the other corners will shrink lengthways. sq is small enough to keep out almost any insects such as cabbage root fly, carrot fly, white fly, onion fly, flea beetle, vine weevil, aphids, bees, wasps, cutworm and other caterpillars, moths and butterflies.

Moisture and air can still filter through to your plants using the Micromesh leaving them healthy and well nourished. Absolutely brilliant and perfect for my various vegetables/salad within my numerous raised veg boxes.

I bought it to save my carrots from the carrot root fly then realised it should work on my brassicas too so bought a second one as well. The technical term for this type of net is Raschel which is a type of warp knitting in which parallel monofilaments are looped together in a zigzig pattern along the length of the net. The sun can still shine on your crop, and you can still water and tend to it, but due to the Micromesh material it will have instant protection from pesky pets, harsh winds and low flying insects such as carrot-fly. If you need to keep off flea beetle or whitefly you will need Veggiemesh Ultra fine, the holes are much smaller and will stop the smaller pests from getting to your crops.

Helpful Haxnicks hint: there is no need to remove it when watering or giving liquid feed, just apply directly through the mesh. This also helps to reduce any snagging of the netting and makes it less fiddly and time-consuming to load onto the stuffing tube.Helpful Little Fields hint: there is no need to remove it when watering or giving liquid feed, just apply directly through the mesh. in natural green colour provides superior protection from insects, particularly carrot fly, flea beetle and aphids, so this reduces the need for chemical insecticides.
