difference on how to proceed

In a mid section the wires from the top, # 4 and# 5 and #7 are chewed through the twine coating but the inner metal wire seems to be intact. An adjacent verticle stay lower down by wire #6 is chewed in half and wire #6 on the opposite side of the chewed stay is chewed completely through the twine and wire right next to the stay. There are two pieces of wire sticking out of the stay about one-two inches long with a mangled half inch of twine. I can send a digital photo if you have and email address. Thanks, Laura

If the danage is in one section you can cut it out and tie all of the
wires back together. Or just splice in a new piece of twine on the
wires that need more support.

Hi thanks for your offer to help. I guess I am not sure what to do or what is the best solution or if there is a way to repair it wihout cutting out the damaged section altogether. Also, what about the plastic, do you know if it can be repaired?

What if the ends are too short to tie? Is that what the black clamps are for in the repair kit? Do you have to cover the wires with electrical tape or anything after tied? What about the plastic, can it be repaired?

Repairing the plastic is not easy.You can use epoxy that is made
for plastic but with the stress that a net comes under it may not hold.
