Harvest Without Harm – Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Regulations 2019
This product is compliant with the Animal Welfare Victoria Harvest Without Harm initiative. If you live in Victoria, netting used to protect household fruit trees, vegetable gardens, or other fruiting plants must have a mesh size of 5mm x 5mm or less at full stretch.
If you use netting to protect your household fruit or vegetable plants in Victoria you will need to comply with this mandatory requirement introduced under Victoria’s Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Regulations 2019 (POCTA Regulations). Netting fruit trees with larger holed mesh risks causing significant injury or death to wildlife such as possums and birds due to entanglement.
