Bird Netting For the Garden 5m x 5m 50mm 2" Anti Pigeon Knotted Mesh Heavy Duty White Net Protection

I bought this to put up on the front of the house to make it easier to hang our outdoors xmas lights. The netting is strong and easy to handle. Unlike cheaper alternatives, when hung it keeps it's shape and remains "square". Since the nesh was installed towards the end of November, it has had to ride out three major storms and wind events. It survived these with ANY issues what-so-ever.ZERO deformationZERO looseningZERO slackeningZERO breakagesThis is superb performance, especially as the net was also supporting our christmas lights and they too survived without any problems.Just be aware that because the string the mesh is made of is good quality, this also means that it has very little stretch.In conclusion, I am very happy with my purchase.

Plenty strong enough to prevent pigeons squatting a balcony :)Didn't check the exact size but certainly looks to be what I ordered (5mx5m).It''s packed in a diamond/lozenge shape which is possibly what confuses some regarding the sizing ?

This is a good quality net, but definitely not 5x5, the breath is 5 only in the middle less than a meter in corners, so if you want a square piece you need to cut from middle and through the corners.

This is a great see-through net for my pond, from 15 feet away it doesn’t even look as if there is a net over the pond, which is now fully heron proof.

Ideal exactly what we wanted

Value for money

I used the netting to protect fruit bushes on the allotment. Draped the netting over a frame and tensioned it with canes and pegs at ground level. It was effective and I didn't lose fruit. The netting is stretchy so it can be hard to know where to cut off a length. In the end I just guessed and cut off a generous amount from the skein. Very strong and well made. The mesh size is large so will keep pigeons out but not insects and possibly some determined small birds. A good investment.

a claimed 10m x 5m was wildly inaccurate. Instead of a rectangle, I got a diamond with a wide bit in the centre, but long drawn out ends. It was intended to 'roof' my chicken enclosure against buzzards, but was of no practical use.The quality of the material looked fine, but as it was not fit for purpose it was returned. I did get a refund from Amazon, but I am wary of producers who clearly do not a quality control dept worthy of the name.
