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. p. pleater. |

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. -- Chris French |

The message
from chris French contains these words: In message , p. pleater writes Has anyone had any experience with insect control material called .... Agrilan Enviromesh or NA. Kayes Viromesh ?

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.
