Isn't landscape fabric designed to break down?

Sounds more like canvas to me. Or perhaps the semi-permeable stuff that they make awnings out of.

I think the nylons idea is fantastic. Easy and cheap. I will start scamming my wife's old nylons. I am really cheap!

No No No!!!

She'll be blaming me for her disapearing nylons!!!!!

But seriously, I would suggest new nylons (they are cheap at the dollar store). The nylon looses a lot of it's strength if it has a run in it. And how many 1-time used nylons have you seen without at least 1 run in it??

That,s also why I double them over 3 times. In case one of the folds run...

Go for the cheap, but new ones. It's not worth it... Especially if your wife finds out!!!!

At least wait till she takes them off first.
