What is insect netting?


what is anti insect netting?

Insect netting (sometimes called anti insect net) is one of several kinds of nets used to against insects. The entire net is generally constructed from a lightweight mesh to minimize damage from insects.


Normally, an anti insect net is a light mesh used for blocking insects. It is made from a plain-woven or knitted net. Yes, it looks a little like curtains.

As it is a thin fabric, it allows sunlight to enter, and it doesn't block the rain. The only ones that a mesh is stopping are the insects.

Thanks to 100% polyethylene, a mesh is strong and durable. Plus, it is forming an effective barrier when installed over the garden netting hoops.

Depending on the tissue's density, nets prevent pests' entry into greenhouses and hothouses. The size, of course, depends on what the farm grows. Not all pests attack the same type of plants- and it all affects the kind of netting.

The insect netting can be cut with scissors.

Putting a physical block helps decrease the need for garden chemicals.

The garden chemicals break down into many elements, and some of those are metabolites. As you may aren't aware, metabolites tend to be toxic. This further means that pesticides can be harmful to humans.


Suitable Temperature

Insect-proof meshes give security against insects, often without meaningful increases in temperature.


Block Heavy Rain and Wind

Besides, it is adequate protection against wind. They also block heavy rain. And that means reducing the damage that big raindrops can do to ground structures.

What are the disadvantages of anti-insect netting?



before and after anti insect net

Depending on the type of plants you're growing, anti-insect netting might not be for you. Nets don’t have any thermal effects. And it is even increasing temperature. But, it can still cause some problems.

If your crops need to be provided with extra warmth or frost protection, this is not the right product for you.

The anti-insect netting may, on the other side, encourage slugs and even some diseases.

There is a high humidity level when the plant is growing under the mesh. That can be the reason for the illness of the plant, such as Botrytis or downy mildew.

Slugs and snails may be attracted by the high humidity beneath the mesh as well.

Even if it is not a recommendation, sometimes you have to uncover your plants. The reason is, as you may conclude, restricted access to weeds. But once you discover it, there is a risk of pests entering inside the mesh. And once they do, they will multiply quickly.

If the mesh touches the crop foliage, insects can lay eggs through the net. But, this is rarely if the installation was properly done.

As we said, the anti-insect nets are suitable for strawberries and courgettes. Bu these plants shouldn't be growing under mesh during their flowering season.

Be careful to plants don't be cramped because they grow under net covers.


When Covering

Take care when covering so that plant has enough space to grow.

The most crucial point to memorize with ant-insect netting is that it needs to cover the whole crop.

That means from top to bottom. Any insects, even butterflies, will find any hollow no matter how tiny it is.

And the most popular way they see to enter is where the net rests on the ground. That way, the recommendation is to buy the wider net. In that way, you can bury it in the soil at the edges.


Watering Directly

Bear in mind that it is not enough to only install the anti-insect net for valid production. There are other actions that you must perform. A neglected greenhouse is a source of diseases and pests for the plants. So, successful vegetable production includes a well-maintained area. That is destroying

weeds next to all greenhouse openings. And also cleaning and disinfection of the greenhouse.





How to choose a good manufacturer?


The tip is to consider the next points which should determine your choice of insect netting:

1. Price (It is anti insect netting cost and postage cost),

2. Expected life extent (is it long-lasting. There is 3 years, 5 years different choices),

3. The amount of sunlight that will go through the mesh (plants need sunlight to grow. you don't want to take away the sunlight from your plants),

4. The mesh's weight is essential. It is supposed to be light, especially if you plan to place it on your plants without aid,

5. The manufacturer's reputation is crucial. Don't buy mesh on the internet without reading about the fabric. If you do so it may be a fraud and in that case, you won't receive what you thought the product would be.
