I have peas and broad beans growing a couple of inches high - do they still need netting or is it only necessary to keep the birds off the seeds?

I know brassicas need netting for the whole time but is there anything else that does? I have strawberries and raspberries and plan to net them before the fruit arrives.

Also where is a good place to buy lots of netting?

[DD.]

I have to net my peas when just emerging and then later when the pods are filling, from our pigeons.

Have to make them quite a way above the peas as they land on top & peck through!  :evil:

I keep mine protected from bunnies from day one til I have stripped the pods.

I think it will depend on your local wild life and its desperation, best to have a nosy around, in the better looking gardens, what is or is not covered.

Here, we get some jay damage on Broad beans, but ignorable, peas and other beans are fine without anything, so are raspberries, but I do net the strawberries as the slugs are also after those, can't have others, too.  

And I permanently need to fleece carrots... :roll:
