Description and Cost of Insect Net in Kenya
A thin fabric resembling a row cover but is more porous and thinner is applicable to make ant-insect nets. When crops don’t require insulation, cover them with bug netting, especially if there are a lot of pests or avian pressure. It transmits up to 85% of the available sunlight and does not block overhead irrigation or rain. By preventing pest insects from entering greenhouses and net houses, insect nets are crucial for minimizing crop loss. An anti-insect greenhouse net is suggested for building low-cost greenhouses and net homes. It can potentially increase vegetable yields by up to 40% while reducing pesticide use by up to 80%.

If you thoroughly cover the plants and securely pin the edges to the ground, it will keep the bulk of bug pests away from your crops. Aphids, Japanese beetles, grasshoppers, leaf miners, cabbage worms, root maggots, and some vine borers could be deterred by them.
