Insect Control Netting
 

Has anyone had any experience with insect control material called ....
Agrilan Enviromesh or NA. Kayes Viromesh ? ( I assume they're two
different products).
Never having seen the products, I'm curious about their texture.
Ideally I would hope it to be soft and flaccid enough to drape it over
brassicas and fruit bushes etc rather like a fleece say, but I wonder if
it might be a bit too stiff for this and perhaps better suited to a cage
frame to keep it clear of the plants. I think they are also used for
polytunnel covers.
Its pricey stuff so I don't want to make an expensive error.
Advice would be appreciated.

Enviromesh is like a rather coarse net curtain, it's not a soft as
fleece, but it's flexible enough to drape over something and just hold
in place with boards or bricks for temporary protection.

I'm fairly sure that I bought some of Kays' own brand and found it
somewhat stiffer and therefore a bit more difficult to manage than the
normal stuff.

I'm not sure if you've brought your enviromesh yet, but I saw a picture of
it on the Ferndale Lodge website -
http://www.ferndale-lodge.co.uk/Prod...product=556507 it looks
like a more open weave of hessian.
