Get a piece long enough to cover the pond and hold it in place with some large rocks on 4 sides. If you have a lot of small leaves you might want to try using two pieces of the mesh over top each other to reduce the hole size. Pool supply store might have good sized nets if the garden store doesnt. ^_^  |
