    I have been using these bags for years. I have 100s in all different sizes. Sometimes they help and sometimes I find them on the floor. Unfortunately here in Florida we have everything except deer (so far). We have raccoons and squirrels plus the birds and rats, etc. Raccoons are very smart and they're here every night. Since my trees are not really big yet I even bought an entire cover to put over the entire tree. Those really work well. I even have smaller covers for my blueberry bushes. Thank goodness they don't eat sny of my citrus. It's a challenge!

    Just purchased some sleeves from your website. Thanks, I had only ever seen bags before. That will also be great for my fig trees. cheers

    Eaten the day before harvest?
    Ours start getting eaten when they're like marbles.
    We've spent a small fortune building structures to keep out the pests, mainly Possums, so I will be investing in some of these to protect some of our other trees.

    I have a 2.5m espalier apricot tree which took me 8 years to shape.
    Possums ate all of the leaves two years ago and killed the tree. 😢

      I tried to order the last couple but couldn't do it.
      Just Google them and see what you find.

    Hi I had to pull all the fruit off my trees earlier this year after fruit fly strike, have you had this problem before in Victoria?

      Yes, lost all our apricots last year to fruit fly. This year was a bit better, as the apricots ripened early, but they still got into a lot of them., despite a few traps.

    Might want to check your website dude.
    Says there's 7 available but when it gets to checkout it says not available to ship.
    Fruit unprotected and missus cranky.

    The branches aren't uniform, so the bags are not useful....and take ages, not to mention the hell putting them on and off.
