Our square portable domed cages provide year-round protection for fruit and vegetable crops in UK gardens. Lightweight and easy to move, they can be lifted between beds as needed. In winter, cover with garden fleece to protect young plants, and in summer use netting to keep birds and insects away.

Square Portable Domed Cages For All Year Round Crop Protection

Each cage measures 0.92m (3') high by 1.2m (3' 11\") wide and is available in six different lengths. The aluminium frame assembles quickly and can be ordered with or without netting. Base rails and top rails keep the structure rigid, making it easy to move without bending or losing shape. With netting, the frame includes support bars, U pins, and clips; without, it includes the frame and joiners.

Choosing Covers For Square Portable Domed Cages

Choose from a range of covers to suit your growing needs. Options include Veggiemesh insect mesh, soft butterfly net, anti bird netting, and ultra-fine Veggiemesh. Each cover allows air, light, and rain through while blocking pests. Select your preferred length and cover type or choose "no netting" if only the frame is required.

Veggiemesh Insect Mesh For Pest Control

Veggiemesh insect mesh protects vegetables from pests such as cabbage root fly, carrot fly, pea moth, leek moth, cutworm, onion fly, and aphids. The mesh allows good airflow and sunlight while creating a barrier against insects. It's ideal for use over raised beds, vegetable plots, or allotments where pest control is essential.

Ultra-Fine Veggiemesh For Smaller Pests

Ultra-fine Veggiemesh features smaller holes to stop finer pests including flea beetle, allium leaf miner, and whitefly. It provides reliable protection while allowing water and air to reach plants. This cover helps keep vegetables healthy and free from insect damage through the growing season.

Soft Butterfly Net For Cabbage White And Bird Protection

The soft butterfly net from Gardening Naturally stops cabbage white butterflies and birds from reaching your crops. Available in green or black, it lets air, rain, and sunlight pass through freely. It's ideal for vegetable beds and borders where butterflies and birds are a recurring problem.

Anti Bird Netting For Fruit And Vegetable Beds

Anti bird netting keeps pigeons and other birds away from fruit, vegetables, and flowers. The flexible design suits bushes, raised beds, and small trees. It protects crops without harming wildlife and is available in green or black to blend naturally into your garden or allotment setting.

Garden Fleece For Extending The Growing Season

Garden fleece can be used with the square portable domed cages to warm the soil and bring on early crops. It also protects tender plants through colder months. Simply place the fleece over the frame to create a sheltered microclimate that encourages healthy growth in spring and autumn.
