I'd suggest netting on top AND pot shards sticking up.

If you stick large chunks of broken pots or broken glass into your pots so the pointy bits are sticking up, it becomes very difficult for the squirrels to climb into the pots and do their dirty deeds. This has helped me with my figs (my fig tree is small & in a big pot).

You could also make an awesome quick & dirty scarecrow out of some dowels and used CDs/DVDs. Hang them from string or fishing line & the wind will move them & the reflections will help startle/keep away many birds.
