Keep birds and squirrels away from your fruit using this easy and inexpensive approach to net your fruit trees - simple enough that a single person can manage it.
This is one of those instances I was so stuck in how I thought the netting had to be done that the concept of making a big, square box around the tree just didn’t cross my mind. Perspective , wonderful. Thank you so much.
Thanks for this method. I actually have my 10 feet of netting purchased but everyone seems to find it funny that I'm contemplating netting atree. I will follow your instuctionns and post my tree. . And Oh I'm subbed
Exactly what I was needing! I struggled to think how I could protect my trees without building a greenhouse over them. Problem is I have 2 peaches, 5 apples, 3 figs, 1 cherry, 1 nectarine, 1apricot, 1 plum, 1 pear, 1 mulberry tree, on 1/3 acre, plus a veg garden and 3 large raised beds, a grapevine, elderberries, an herb garden and various pots and flower beds. This is an economical solution that I can start and add to over time. I used netting for a tomato bed before and an occasional bird would get stuck, but it was almost a daily chore to remove the lizards. They push their heads into the holes and can't figure out how to go backwards and just shove their heads in deeper, get hung, and then bake in the sun. Took down the netting. I think I can use different fabric or fencing material that will still let in the bees.
I build a cage the same way, but use 1/2 inch pvc electrical tubing and pvc corners made for furniture. I store the materials "out of the sun" for the rest of the year.
It’s nice to see your video. I think it unsafe to attempt without and an assistant . assistance. The ladder use is particularly important. Dry, incomplete. Also completely ignoring safety concerns. Do not put anyone in an unsafe situation. It ain’t that easy when older. Understandingresponsibilities

I saw someone using tulls fabric for the netting. I’ll have to look into this myself.
Great solution for birds! Unfortunately the squirrels in my neighborhood would chew through that netting in seconds.
This looks a lot easier than the PVC cage I was contemplating to protect my blueberries.
This is awesome. Thanks!
Helpful thxwill do
Very good and simple method. Simple way to solve and equally easy to install and remove.
Thank you!
This looks like a great design but could someone explain why this is superior to simply netting the tree and synching it at the bottom?
Maybe use a steel hammer (rather than rubber mallet) for hitting in those steel stakes.
Perfect will be doing this on my apple trees
This is wonderful. Would you recommend the same method/netting for squirrels?

Hi Wendy. Can you tell me where to buy the net please?
👍👍👍🙂
So how much did it cost?
🌹👍
Ya mon forward sisdren
Won’t squirrels eat the netting?
They will. Nothing stops those guys
Cheaper to purchase the fruit at the market
not as much fun or rewarding.
Squirrels will rip this kind of netting with no effort if they can rip even a strawberry plastic box I encase in my peaches.
It’s nice to see your video.
