Very interesting twit. Garden supply has a light plant cover as well, if you don't mind looking at white over your plants. Mama used to have so much trouble with birds eating her figs. And she loved her figs, so it was war. She stopped having so many problems when she hung aluminum pie plates on her tree. Punch a hole with an ice pick and use ornament hooks to hang them. I have to say,however,I would have to paint something pretty on the pie tins.:rofl:
