Pea advice

My peas are starting to come up, but look very munched. Ive been told its birds, but they havent really improved since covering them. Could mice also be pea eaters?

Also, for some reason i cant get my head round pea supports. The variety i have do not grow big, and so far have just a wooden bbq skewer for support. What would be best? And will a few lines of string between a couple of canes be sufficiant?

Thanks!

If they're small circular chunks out of the leaves, it's probably weevils. Mine have been attacked really badly, but apparently they should grow through it.

Hmm, without looking im not sure if v shaped or circular - but yep, its little chunks out, like a small mouth......
