Top rim of net bag is banded with rugged sailcloth. By the way if you do tear a bag, we offer net bags separately - no need to replace the rest of the net, which should last a lifetime. We also offer sweep nets, used to collect insects by sweeping back and forth across grass or shrubbery to collect insects parked on the leaves. These nets have a tougher rim that runs the full length of the net bag. As is the case with aerial nets, sweep nets are available in both 12 and 15 inch sizes.
Nets come with pole, net bag and hoop.
To assemble, simply slip net bag around hoop and lock hoop into handle.
