• Has struts as verticals instead of strings • Plus version includes extra line posts • DP (drivable) posts tap into hard soil with a mallet Because it’s so easy to use and adapts readily to most situations, netting has become the way to protect hives from bears, wildlife, livestock (cattle, sheep, goats, pigs) and feral hogs.
