Where can I use ultra-fine Veggiemesh® insect netting?

Veggiemesh Ultra-fine insect netting may also be used to screen glasshouse doors and vents, and windows to exclude insects. It can also be laid directly over crops or just lay over hoops or garden cages.

The light and air passage are the same as our standard Veggiemesh because the yarn thickness on the Ultra-fine Veggiemesh insect netting is smaller than standard Veggiemesh.
