   Can a Heron take pond fish?

   • Pond cover nets are the only way to really prevent a Heron from taking pond fish. The fine mesh will prevent the bird from sticking its head and neck through, while also preventing pond fish from being pulled back through it. This also means it will keep valuable pond fish, prone to jumping, the right side of the net.

   Will a pond cover scare away a heron?

   • They won’t scare away a heron, but they allow your fish a much better chance of not becoming easy heron food. If you have a pond with no natural cover, especially if the pond is shallow, we recommend a fish shelter as this will make hunting much harder for predators.

   Do you need a fish shelter for a heron pond?

   • If you have a pond with no natural cover, especially if the pond is shallow, we recommend a fish shelter as this will make hunting much harder for predators. As they won’t directly deter herons, fish shelters are best mixed with other deterrents, such as pond netting, decoys, or automatic repellers (water or sound).

   How do you keep a heron from rotting in a pond?

   • That way any leaves it catches will be held up, high and dry, instead of rotting in the water. Do ensure that every part of the pond is covered by the net as a gap of just six inches will be enough for a heron to predate fish as normal, especially if the fish associate that gap with the place that you feed them.
