Talkback: Weeds and wildlife

't have the heart to pull it out. I think a lot of you are missing the point about Richard's blog. He's writing about wild plants and how they should be respected as part of wildlife, not just a weed to be killed! How sad! Wow, what a fantastic lot by anon

Steel mesh covering wildlife pond?

I hope to finish off building my wildlife pond this year, and to make it child safe I was thinking of laying a steel reinforcing re-bar mesh grid over the top, or possibly just underneath the water level. Would this steel grid cause any reaction by LeadFarmer
