Default The heron file. A perrenial problem (Part one)

I have never had any small animal/bird get caught in my nets. true, they are taut. I
have had a couple birds "walk in" under the net and couldnt find their way out. ...
typical.. a morning dove. Ingrid

Along with the stated reasons not to use nets I
have a real concern with my two labradors. I think
netting my pond would be a real danger. They like to drink
out of the pond and the worry would be if one fell in or was
pushed in while playing. No fish is worth the lives of my
dogs. I also have concerns with birds and squirrels getting
caught in the nets.
