Anti-Insect Nets
UV-stabilised 50-mesh anti-insect nets that keep whiteflies, thrips and aphids out of greenhouses, tunnels and nurseries.
*Prices exclude localized transport outside Nairobi. On-site installation and testing included for turnkey systems.
Agronomic Overview & Specifications
Whiteflies, thrips, aphids and Tuta absoluta can wipe out a tomato or capsicum crop, and the viruses they carry cannot be sprayed away. Symnet supplies UV-stabilised 50-mesh anti-insect nets in Kenya that physically keep pests out of greenhouse vents, walk-in tunnels and seedling nurseries, so you spray less and harvest cleaner produce.
The fine mesh blocks even tiny thrips and whiteflies while still letting in light and air, so your crop stays ventilated and cool.
Who Are Our Insect Nets For?
- Greenhouse farmers growing tomatoes, capsicum and cucumbers
- Seedling nurseries and propagators
- Open-field farmers using walk-in tunnels for cabbages, kale and other brassicas
- Farmer groups, schools and NGO projects

Commonly Integrated Solutions
Greenhouses
Symnet Agro Solutions designs, manufactures, and installs high-performance commercial greenhouses tailored specifically to withstand Kenyan equatorial radiation, gusting winds, and localized microclimates. Available in Class B hot-dipped galvanized metallic arches or pressure-treated eucalyptus timber, each structure is engineered to optimize photosynthetic active radiation (PAR), regulate relative humidity, and eradicate destructive pests like tuta absoluta, thrips, and whiteflies.
Shade Nets & Shade Net Houses
In hot arid and semi-arid zones across Kenya, excessive solar radiation causes production drop, sunscald, and rapid moisture evaporation. Symnet Agro Solutions distributes premium UV-treated agro shade nets in densities ranging from 50% to 90%.
