Bird-X Protective Netting for Fruit Vegetables Black 7ft x 20ft
Product Details
Web ID: 15201785Not Very Useful
Bird-X netting is only useful if you build a frame to hold the netting above the fruits and veggies; otherwise you will soon find that stems, fruit and leaves quickly become enmeshed in the netting, making it very hard to remove the netting to harvest the produce.

Kills Animals
This seems like a good idea until you have to cut away a dead, entangled bird that died a horrible slow death. Then, due to your tears impairing your vision and bc you are distracted bc you just know that’s the deceased bird’s wife calling to find her mate, you slice your hand instead of the netting.

Cheep, flimsy
The same cheep, thin, and very hard to use netting I got from the box store last year. I was hoping by ordering from a large seed company I could get better netting. Putting this on a fruit tree had me on the floor laughing.

Difficult and dangerous
This product is difficult and dangerous to work with. Tangles easily with anything and everything it touches. Be careful with your pets and children as they can get injured if they get tangled up. The harder they try to pull away from it the tighter the net will get around them.

Bird X Success
I bought this about two months ago to counter my problem with mockingbirds pecking my tomatoes. Last year I think we lost about a third to the pesky birds. This year I think I lost only one tomato out of all those I had on 25 plants and that was my fault because I did not have the bottom completely to the ground
