Netting indoors and row covers outdoors are ways to keep insects off plants.
Specifically, insects can be beneficial or harmful to plants. Netting encases a houseplant whereas row covers protect plants arranged in straight lines. Indoors or out, the two options keep insects from getting in contact with above-ground plant parts. They serve as effective measures although they will be problems in the case of plants to be pollinated by such beneficial insects as bees (Apisspp).
