Have you done the permutation test within your pairs?  I think that 
answers your main question.

I don't see why you wish to go to repeated measures modelling of 
individual leaves, unless you think the distribution of damage might be 
different under the nets, in which case you would need an appropriate 
interaction term in the RE part.

Just 2c, David Duffy.
