Yesterday I put in onion sets and netted them to stop birds pulling them

This morning many of them are out of the ground.
Some have moved about five inches!
What can have done this?
Worms?
Slugs?
(Are slug pellets needed?)
Is this a known phenomenon?
What's the answer?
I suppose plant them very deep?

What sort of net? How high was it above the sets?

Mine were covered by mesh, just placed on the surface, and held in place
by pegs & bricks yet the onion sets 'moved'. I recon mice?
This isn't the first year that has happened!
