Growing in a polytunnel or greenhouse doesn’t automatically mean crops are safe from pests. In fact, many growers find insects like carrot fly, cabbage moth, aphids, whitefly, flea beetles, leaf miners, and caterpillars are just as much of an issue indoors as outdoors.
That’s why reusable insect mesh has become such a popular option. It creates a simple barrier that keeps pests out while still allowing air, light, and moisture through, so growing conditions stay consistent.
It’s quick to use too—just drape it over crops and secure the edges. No frames, no permanent setup, and it works just as well in small gardens as it does in larger growing systems.
Beyond insects, it also helps reduce damage from birds and rabbits, which can be a real problem for young plants and freshly planted crops.
Polydome also supplies windbreak netting, which complements insect mesh by reducing wind stress and helping plants establish more steadily in exposed growing areas.
Overall, it’s a prevention-first approach: fewer losses, healthier crops, and less need for reactive treatments later in the season.
