Just have the net overlap like curtains. Pull back to get to tomatoes. It works fine.

PP again- something like this, although this is out of stock and I can't find something similar!

Has anyone used zippers or velcro as an easier way to get IN to the netting after you've set it up over a garden? I want to cover my tomatoes this year (stupid starlings) but need to figure out how to actually pick the tomatoes while keeping the enclosure secure.

Bird netting is kind of a pain, the flimsy kind is the only kind I know of. Use zip ties to attach it to a frame made of PVC or wood or something.

Otherwise you could use chicken wire.

I'm sure squirrels could chew through bird netting.

It depends on what you are trying to keep out.

Could you recommend your favorite netting for vegetable garden? I have the AG fabric netting and wondering whether the veggies will get enough sun with it. Thanks!
