My figs are being enjoyed by the birds. Tell me your experience with bird netting and which are the most effective and how to set up the netting.

Hi Everybody!! Let us talk native.

Check out the netting at americannettings.com. They have good prices. I just ordered shade cloth for my raised beds.
