I went to the hardware store and purchased inexpensive six foot high netting with about 1/2 inch openings. It is black and not too obvious to the eye. I think it is what people use to keep birds out--I just liked it because the deer never tired to push past it and because I could roll it up out of my way easily. I stapled it to bamboo stakes and was quite happy with the money I saved. Of course, if your land is large it might not be the best way to go.
