can anyone suggest an alternative liner for my three tier baskets.
i have coconut liners and the birds are having a field day stealing it for nests!
any advice or help desperately needed as when I water,the soil is starting to fall out!

An old compost bag, turned inside out so black side shows, maybe disguised with some moss? Tightly packed moss (my fall back position every year), commercial liners disguised with moss? Alan Titchmarsh used old jumpers one year I remember.
I lined my under the kitchen window hay basket with moss, as I usually do, on the assumption the birds had finished with it (last years moss was virtually gone), but it is all lying on the ground now!!! Guess I'll wait a bit longer - but I do think it is quite late for birds to still be taking it for nesting.
