Default Netfloat Heron protection

Hi all!

Can anyone tell me if they've had any experience of "Netfloat" as protection
against herons?

Would be interested to hear how effective or not they are.

TIA

I don't have any experience with those, but they look like a PITA. I see
them floating into my skimmer or all bunched up on one side of the pond.
Interesting idea though - keep the heron from the edge. I do the same with
thin copper wire strung around my pond. It's been effective since I put it
up.
