Bird destruction on my strawberries, cherries, and blueberries is almost 100% without protection. Robins devastate the strawberries and a combination of birds destroy the cherries and blueberries. After trying various ineffectual methods, I settled on fibre glass screening.The screening is strong,wont tear,doesn’t snag,and does no harm to the birds. It was purchased in a roll,eight feet wide, and relatively expensive. It is simply placed over the berries and removed as required for picking. It is heavy enough to stay in place with relatively strong winds.
