It does have a tendency to blow though and it's hard to see what's going on underneath so I like the netting idea. I wonder if they won't walk on it?

When we tried row cover, the deer and elk just punctured the cover and got stuck and ran off taking pieces of row cover with them. I purchased the netting at Coastal, it is UV resistant, and has held up for 5 years so far with out any sign of deterioration. Hope this helps :)Throwback at Trapper Creekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12418370592659531735noreply@blogger.com
