No gardening yesterday as it was my DC's school sports day. Well, it was a rearranged inside sports and activities day as obviously it was raining, but of course the playing fields are all churned up and slippy. A couple of hours without rain, then, er -more rain from 10 ish.
Bear for strawbs you don't need fine mesh, so any old thing will do, as long as it's held down well at the sides. I'd also raise it off the plants, as birds will happily peck through the holes if they can. But for pea moth you'd want a finer gauge. Lots of people use scaffolding debris netting, either newly bought, or recycled. So a friendly builder, or ebay could be good there.
