Rabbit Netting

Rabbit netting is very versatile and can be used for many purposes. It is good for keeping small pets inside your garden and keeping rabbits out of veggie patches. The 1.8m-high netting is often used on chicken runs because it is stronger than chicken netting.

The netting is sometimes stapled onto wooden walkways and bridges to increase grip during wet or icy weather. To avoid a tripping hazard, rabbit netting used for this purpose should be checked regularly, and any damaged sections should be replaced.

Gardeners use rabbit netting as cheap but strong support for their climbing plants.

• Galvanised mild steel or Green PVC-coated
• mix of 25mm or 31mm holes
• 0.5m to 1.8m high
• 10m to 50m rolls

To keep out Rabbits, the minimum netting height is usually 1.05m (3'6"), with approximately 150mm (6") at the bottom of the netting dug in vertically or turned back horizontally towards the Rabbits, then pegged down, or the turf turned back and then replaced over the net to hold it down.

To prevent Rabbit netting from sagging and increase its strength, it is generally attached to line wires run at the top and bottom of the netting using netting clips. For some applications and netting over 1.05m high, a central line wire(s) is added.
