Rally Eco Netting White Knitted 4m x 10m – Wildlife-Safe 5mm Bird Netting

Rally Eco Netting White Knitted 4m x 10m: Wildlife-Safe Bird Netting

Rally Eco Netting is a white, knitted bird netting designed to protect fruit trees, vegetables and garden beds while being safer for wildlife than older netting styles. This pre-pack size measures 4m x 10m and has a fine 5mm hole. That small mesh is the key feature: it keeps birds, and often fruit bats, from getting to your crop while also being fine enough that wildlife is far less likely to get tangled or caught in it, which is the problem with wide-hole netting.

The netting is UV stabilised, so it holds up to Australian sun over a season rather than going brittle quickly, and the white knitted construction is easy to see and easy to throw over trees and frames. It's a practical choice for anyone wanting to keep birds off ripening fruit and veg without the wildlife risks that come with cheaper large-hole net.

Why the 5mm Hole Matters

In much of Australia, wildlife-friendly fruit netting is strongly encouraged, and in some states there are rules around mesh size, because birds, flying foxes and reptiles can get badly entangled in large-hole netting. A fine 5mm mesh like this greatly reduces that risk, since animals can't push a head or limb through and get caught. As a good rule of thumb, netting you can't poke a finger through is considered wildlife-safe, and this netting meets that guide.

How to Use It

Drape the netting over the tree, frame or bed you're protecting and secure it at the base so birds can't get underneath. Where possible, holding the net out on a frame or stakes rather than resting it straight on the foliage works better, since it keeps birds from pecking fruit through the mesh and makes the net easier to remove. Pull it taut rather than leaving loose folds, which further reduces any chance of wildlife getting caught, and pack it away once the crop is picked so it lasts for future seasons.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is this netting?
It's a 4m x 10m pre-pack with a fine 5mm hole size.

Is it safe for wildlife?
Yes. The fine 5mm mesh is designed to be wildlife-safer, greatly reducing the risk of birds, bats and reptiles becoming entangled compared with wide-hole netting.

What can I use it on?
Fruit trees, herb gardens and vegetable patches, and any garden bed where you want to keep birds off ripening produce.

Will it last outdoors?
It's UV stabilised so it stands up to sun exposure through the growing season. Packing it away after harvest helps it last longer.

How do I stop birds getting under it?
Drape it over the plant or frame and secure it at the base or ground. Holding it out on a frame rather than directly on the foliage also stops birds pecking fruit through the mesh.
