Here is a simple “fence” I put up to keep garden pests from eating my plants by using the type of netting you see in the Amazon link below.
The stuff is fairly cheap considering what it does. You could spend thousands of dollars building a fencing barrier that still doesn’t keep out everything. I have a neighbor who has had trouble with raccoons climbing right over top of his metal fence or even opening the fence door to make a convenient exit!
You can see my setup in the picture below. There isn’t much to it really. It’s just a simple stand held up with braces and stakes in the ground with the netting draped over everything.

Here you can see how I made it possible to remove the netting easily so that I can work underneath without it getting in the way.

Here is a view from the other side. You can’t really see it in any of the pictures, but I have wires that go from the board that spans across down into the ground to give the tomatoes something to grow up.
