How do the vegetables in the shops look so good? It is because they are sprayed with insecticides throughout their growing period. Insecticides are a poison and residual amounts can be found in our food, particularly the leafy greens.
When families grow at home they generally become more aware of this so decide not to spray, but you end up with half the veggies eaten by pests and for a lot of people this has turned them off growing at home.
The way we solved that is using a veggie net over the crop to stop the bugs, possums, birds, snails gettings access. This method does work but it suffered two main issues.
1. it looks a bit ugly.
2. it relied on being very careful to keep closing the gaps in the net.
Over the past 12 months we have been working on a new solution and testing it and we are very excited to be launching the PestFree Maxi Covers.
The difference it makes to growing organic food at homes is incredible. Not only are you stopping the pests but the plants actually grow better when they are not being attacked so you get faster more abundant harvests as well.
PLUS they look stylish in the garden. Check out the photo below sent in by a customer.

"Hi Brian and Kaylene,Proof is in the pudding. What a difference having the covers has made. The broccolini was all planted at the same time but the cover would not fit over whole bed. But it is wonderful proof of just how effective your covers are. The plants are bigger, stronger
and not one not leaf chewed. We are so happy with the nets. Next year we will plant in one metre squares so that they are all covered.
Many thanks,"Pat Ovens Mt Waverley VIC
