I just came across a netsite I saved from last year for birdnetting.  Grolock??  .32/sq ft.   I have nothing to compare that price against--but it would be too much for me to spend--I figured it would be $90-$100 for 25x25 to cover my dwarf cherry.  That's starting to be expensive pie.


E&R Seed, garden supply catalogue,
28' x 28' for 24.09, 2 or more @22.89; also lots of other sizes:

Gemplers, 14' x 30' for 12.25 each, 10.95 if ordering 4 or more; also 7' x 100' for 17.75/15.95
www.gemplers.com or 800-382-8473:

Probably more sources around but these are the ones I found in a hurry.

I don't know how the quality of the nettings compares; but the price difference might be primarily in the companies; Gemplers is aiming primarily at the commercial market (though they do take small orders) and so often is cheaper than companies aiming at home gardeners, and E&R runs cheaper than most people on most things they carry.

2 1/4" of rain here and still going --

-- Rivka; Finger Lakes NY, Zone 5 mostly
