Deer netting is an essential tool to stop deer from eating plants in your garden. It envelops your desirable plants to shield them from foraging deer. Netting is similar to deer fencing in that it creates a physical barrier between the deer and your plants.

Will bird netting keep deer out?

No Bird Netting

Plastic “bird netting” that is advertised as a bird repellent is not recommended to repel either deer or birds. Wildlife can become tangled in bird netting that is placed over trees and plants.

Does deer netting really work?

Use “invisible” deer netting.

Probably the most common deer fencing type, black mesh deer netting fastened to wooden 4x4s or metal t-bar garden posts is an effective way to keep deer out of the garden. It must be at least eight feet tall to keep the deer from jumping over it.
