Re: [nafex] Jim Fruth's comments.

Maria,
I haven't had the need. I have netting over my blueberries (needs to
be removed for pollination because bumble bees won't fly through it, but
that is another subject) and haven't had much of a problem with my
honeyberries. Could this be a challenge for you to figure it out?

Jim

What about honeyberries/haskaps? The birds eat them all the second they
ripen. Jim, have you tried blue beads on honeyberries or blueberries?
