Does HawkStopper netting actually work?

[Aunt Angus]

I bought it from Amazon.

I'll keep looking for one with smaller mesh on Amazon. Thanks again!

Heavy duty knotted netting with 85 lb breaking strength is the best. That's the breaking strength per strand. When weight is distributed over an area it can support much more. Stromberg is a safe bet but you can buy the same stuff with no name for a bit less. Two-inch mesh will keep out a hawk but let tweety birds in. Oe insh mesh will keep tweety birds out but let mice in.

You can get two-inch woven netting for much less. Woven mesh might be torn by a falling branch, but will hold up to a hawk.

The expanded netting that is single strand is really cheap and will not last for long. But, it should survive the first attack.

I used cheap netting on my run until I was able to get my hardware cloth attached.I only used it temporarily and haven't used it since but it worked. The more visible it is the better.

I have an unused 25' x 25' roll of Pinnon Hatch heavy duty 1"knotted mesh for sale on the Buy-Sell-Trade forum if it would suit anyone's needs!

I'll measure it tomorrow and re-post it for you, but it's small mesh not 5 X 7

Sorry it's took a while, I've been down the last couple of days. I did measure it today and it's between one and a half and one and three quarter inch mesh.

Thanks! I'll check it out!

Apologies for the late reply. I posted and then just completely forgot to respond, apparently.

Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate the suggestions.

How much for your mesh ?
