I love this as a solution. And tulle is fairly inexpensive (at least until all the gardeners put a run on the fabric market and jack prices up LOL). Curious what pests this doesn’t work on? Aphids, thrips, mites? Are these small enough to get through the netting?

@NextLevelGardening 10 ай бұрын

Yea the teally small ones. Not that they would get through a fine Tull but might find their way through folds. It would be a deterrent though I'm sure.

@@NextLevelGardening even better then. Someone posted on a cut flower channel that they were having so much trouble with grasshopper types that they created a 4-foot wide chicken run around the perimeter of their garden and it worked pretty well - less pest pressure and fresh eggs. Win-win. Loved that idea but chickens can be damaging to garden plants if you let them in the garden, but ducks are not it would seem (exception is young tender seedlings) and they are bug-eating machines. I am going to give it a go and see how all of these work. Edit: @Micahlouise9539 posted below that ducks are in fact destructive, so back to the drawing board on that solution. Wanted to edit this in case someone read my comment but didn’t see the follow up post.

I have used Tulle for years. My squirrels bite right through it and eat my Tomatoes, and of course, dig. About 3 years ago, I found using regular window screening to work the best for me I had a lot let over from a project, and tried it as a last ditch effort to keep them away. It is what I found works best for me. All I have to do, is lay it around whatever plants I want to repel the little Munchkins. For some reason, they won't go near the screening.

@yeevita 10 ай бұрын

If the creatures are desperate enough, they can get through tulle. I always leave some stuff without protection, as an attractant, just in case. At my previous house, the squirrels would always try to eat every persimmon in these giant trees I had. No way I could cover those with anything, even though I did initially try to do that on some lower branches. Eventually, I worked out a method that worked very well: The squirrels would run along this block wall to get into the trees, so I put ripe fruit that had fallen off the trees along the wall, especially along the wall before the squirrels reached the trees. It worked super well. There was usually so much fruit along the wall, the squirrels would just sit there and eat and never made it to the trees.

You are so right! I am using successfully tulle from the time of my daughter’s wedding. 12 years. Also - what helped me a lot, especially over newly planted peppers, cucumbers and beans - 1 gallon water bottles with bottom removed, no top and a little stick running from the top through, securing them. Squirrels sometimes can lift them. So still tulle all over.

I had used tulle placed over my young plants in grow bags, but the squirrels would chew thru it and make holes in it and then dig and bury their nuts in my pots in the winter. I had to get tougher tulle they couldn't chew through. Once I placed a short bamboo stick in the bag and placed the tulle over that and tucked the tulle under the bag, the digging stopped. I also keep a roll of 3' high hardware cloth that I can place around an area and that keeps the rabbits and squirrels out until the plants get bigger. I take 4' bamboo poles and every two feet in the hardware cloth I put a few wire ties around them to fasten them to the hardware cloth and then use the poles to stake the hardware cloth in the place I want. It has worked very well. I have found the hardware cloth to be useful for starting sunflowers and then once they get as high as the fence, I take the fence out. I have also used tulle draped over some bamboo poles and used small green plastic clamps to hold the tulle to the poles, and then I can have the tulle elevated and not touching the plants. I use tulle mesh bags with drawstrings around my tomato clusters. I have different size bags for cherry tomatoes versus larger tomatoes. It keeps the worms, birds and pests out.

Thanks for the chuckle, Brian! I moved my raised beds to my back yard this spring to escape the increasing deer pressure,(underestimating their motivation to jump vinyl fences), and was rewarded with a groundhog invasion. They wipe out about half my abundance almost overnight. My aging pups are no help since the chunky beasts can outmaneuver them. I've used tulle for many years- I bought 2 cases of green bolts and still had some. My raised beds have a wood frame over them to support tomato hooks (thanks Brian!), so I wrapped the tulle around the beds, going up about 3 feet above the top of the beds, stapling and clamping it to the beds and supports, hoping the darn critters would not be agile enough to tunnel under the tulle and are too heavy to climb it. It saved a lot of the crop but also keeps me out. I eventually took it down after everything was big and the garden hogs concentrated on the cucumbers, carrots, and kale. Over the winter I'll need to think of a way to use the tulle that keeps kale hogs out but allows me easy access to the beds.

As they started to sprout, the next morning there would be just sticks/stems remaining:( It was so frustrating as I had just moved into this home 10 days earlier and it was already June! I needed all the help I could ,they caused so much damage all season long:( I thought the struggles on an acreage out in the middle of no where had its challenges. However, to keep deer and other game out, an electric fence was all I needed. Then the next big issue was mice. They caused a lot of damage over the years as well. So I am so glad I seen this video.

@yeevita 10 ай бұрын

Use water sprays for white flies and aphids. Also for white flies, tap the plants periodically to make the flies fly. They seem to not like that. White flies like a non-windy protected location, so blowing on them or otherwise disturbing them gets them to move. I also find that for aphids, I keep sacrificial plants. They seem to really infest one or two plants and leave the rest alone. I keep the sacrificial plants as predator bug nurseries, and keep any spread under control, mostly with a periodic water spray. Mostly they stay on the sacrificial plants, and then the predators take care of them. I notice an infestation of aphids, then at some point, they all disappear. I assume weather conditions or the predators ate them all. Using the sacrificial plant or two, I have much fewer aphids all around the garden the last few years. Sometimes, if I see a severely infested leaf on the sacrificial plant/s and do not see predator insect larvae on them, I will clip the leaf to give to my pond fish as a treat.

Too often, I would have seeds germinate only to have every tiny leaf eaten by bugs. Now I am able to give them a chance to grow and get strong. Toulle keeps leaf-footed bugs off my tomatoes.

Deer! Lovely doe-eyed creatures. Deer are delicate, elegant of movement - and utterly voracious. They are PARTICULALRY fond of expensive peonies and roses. They turn their elegant noses up at cheap filler plants that I don't mind losing, they go for the $72 rare tree peony! Every time I find a munched plant, dreams of venison dance through my mind. The secret for me was to confuse the enemy. Deer can easily leap over an 8' (and with a really hungry deer, even a 10' fence). BUT they won't do it if they can't see a place to land. Therefore, I put up a 6' fence and cluttered up all the landing areas with plant teepees, topiaries, garden green stalks, dwarf fruit trees elevated in pots, vines growing up cattle fences - you name it, I've tried it. Arches and arbors and pergolas abound around the perimeter of my property. I named my chicken coop Fort Hennington. It looks like a high-security prison because (according to the helpful brochure from the local USDA Extension office) there are over 30 deadly predators in the Arizona mountains that would love to eat my chickens or their eggs (snakes) or their food (every bird and rodent known to the Southwest desert). So, I'm hunkered down, as prepared as I can get - wish me luck!

Emily, your response to most comments is what makes both of your channels so exceptionally marvelous and outstanding. Most channels when they get really big can’t be bothered with comments. You and Brian are the greatest. ❤❤❤
