I'd think about doing it soon.

Looking at mine they seem to be approaching the size that attracts the interest of pigeons!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Rachel - Glad you asked - I have been thinking the same thing.  Are you going to use debris netting? or should we be using something else for this job?
