AlpineReach Koi Pond Netting Kit 14 x 14 ft Black Heavy Duty Woven Fine Mesh Net Cover for Leaves - Protects Koi Fish from Blue Heron Birds, Cats & Predators – Reusable & Stakes Included

My pond was perfectly serviced by this net. About 9 feet long and 14 feet wide is the water area of my pond. Even with the PVC arches in place, I had enough mesh netting to cover the width, the length, and even the waterfall. The fish food can even be thrown quickly on the net and it falls down into the pond, so there is no need to unhook the netting when feeding the fish. As I have rocks around the corner, I didn't need the stakes that came with the kit instead, I used them for weighing down the net between each PVC section. Ten dollars was what I paid With integrated couplings, the half-inch schedule 40 is made up of four foot sections. A 50 ft. cord was then purchased for tying the PVC sections together and anchoring them at each end to prevent these sections from shifting. For this, I used large metal tent stakes and plastic clips. I pushed the plastic clip to the bottom so the PVC fitted over the stake. In the next step, I use the plastic clip of the tent stake to attach the mesh netting to That's perfect! Thank you! When needed to get to the skimmer, etc. , the skimmer can easily be taken off. It is impossible to express how wonderful this nothing is. This is a highly recommended product.

It is important to prevent wildlife from getting caught in this net, so I would only hook it up on a pond where people can observe if any wildlife is caught in it. Our rear yard pond and large flowering garden attract a lot of birds all day. This item was installed on the pond to create a koi pond. My mind had never been occupied with the notion that birds may be injured and I forgot about that fact as soon as I installed the net and turned around to go back inside. When I emerged, I found a bird circling No one can see any animals that may get trapped in this if it is put in a place that is inaccessible. It has a few small holes Although it may help to keep larger predatory birds from getting caught in these things, if you have hummingbirds, finches, kingfishers, etc. in your garden, you probably realise how many of them use your pond, and you should consider their safety. Basically, it's a fishing net and can easily entangle a bird's foot or something similar, especially if the animal panics. It's not uncomfortable for me, since I work from home, and my pond is right outside of the glass door I sit by all day. However, I would remove this net before I left the house,.

The netting will be used to cover my oval-shaped swimming pool To create a koi pond, I set up a grid of 1 inch PVC pipe every four feet and braces every six Using other nets with stakes along the perimeter did not work out well for me, so I wanted to try this approach. During the previous season, the nets sagged, allowing leaves to sit on the surface of the pond. As long as the leaves were wet, they were impossible to remove. My assembly of the PVC frame was completed with temporary stakes and stakes for the net to rest on, tying the net taut to the PVC frame with zip ties. The net is often in a state of tension from my part. When stretched out like this, the feels strong. Obviously, I was not trying to tear it, but I wanted it to be as flat as possible. As soon as I had moved the assembly over the pond, I moved it back to the bottom of the As for the end results, I am very pleased with them. I think I have a really good chance now of keeping leaves out of the pond as well as being able to easily blow leaves with a leaf blower. This approach has the other benefit of allowing me to slide off the assembly whenever I please, so I don't have to deal It took me a while to get the zip ties in the right place, but that was to be expected. In addition to not knowing how strong this net is in the long run, I'm very happy with this net this fall and eager to see how it performs.

A kingfisher found my pond last year and I bought some netting from my local hardware store to save my goldfish. I am over the moon with this netting and could not be happier. I was happy at the time to have it covered, but it was a hassle to contour around plants and water features with the netting. My mother-in-law gave me this as a replacement for the netting last year, and I'm glad she It is so easy to work with that I was able to cover and stretch it over my 16' x 9' pond by myself and the spikes that came with it worked as well. *I'm very pleased with this, I usually expect that the product I'm buying will be as described, but it was even better than I expected. *I want to point out that the netting stretches considerably larger than the dimensions printed on the bag, I did not cut to size. Because I used such soft netting, the excess is not a problem, it lays It is this netting you are looking for. A RECENT UPDATE- My Water Iris was too easy to net around, just needed a net to protect it from predators. It is a really nice net.

Winterization of my koi pond is one of the most dreaded chores because I have to deal with the pond net every year. It's hard to get them on the pond and they're hard to roll up and store them in a clean manner as well. My past experience with nets has been that they last me for only two years before I become frustrated. Immediately after taking this net out of the box, I could tell this was a higher quality net than other nets, although it was less expensive. There was no fuss, no tangle, no fuss as the net glided over the pond. I really like how it's strong and never tangles the way that other ropes do unless you try it hard. I was deceived by the narrowness of the net, but it has quite a stretch to it. Regarding the ones I have used in the past, I am extremely impressed with the ones on the net.

However, there are a few things to keep in mind The stakes that come with this game should not be used! As they grow, the barbs in the netting tend to tear, so it is difficult to pull them out. Having purchased these staples this year, they have been much easier to insert into the ground and allow the net to be quickly and easily removed with no damage to The TFB 50 Pack measures 6"L by 1"W and 2GA Stailing Round Staples, 12") - Carbon Steel There are 250 packs in each box.

I'm completely satisfied, but I don't comprehend why I ordered so much. The product appears to be what I was looking for other than that A species of bird that provides protection (mostly from predators). The pond is very easy to install and you can trim the edges of the pond to fit its contours. In short, it is also very easy to use The product is good, the customer is happy, so everything is fine. Please note that Fishes (kois) have been saved several times by the heron it seems like The heron understands. It's been a while since I checked in here. My point is that it is not nice. However, I would rather not have it in my pond. There is no doubt in my mind that it is absolutely necessary. A raccoon, a heron live on my property. In that case. Additionally, this is a must-have. When a while has passed. . This is what you This is what we've come to expect. It kinda works. Please note.
