FAQs

What size pests can this mesh deter?

The 13mm mesh is effective against larger garden pests like rabbits, squirrels, and birds. It may not be sufficient to block smaller rodents such as mice or voles.

Can this mesh be used for permanent fencing?

Yes, the galvanized wire and PVC coating provide durability for permanent installations, though regular inspection is recommended for long-term integrity.

How should I store the mesh when not in use?

Store the rolled mesh in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to maximize its lifespan.

Is the green coating environmentally friendly?

The PVC coating is designed for durability and weather resistance. While the material itself is reusable, disposal should be done according to local regulations for plastic-coated wire.

What tools are needed to install the mesh?

Basic tools like wire cutters or heavy-duty scissors for trimming, and potentially pliers, zip ties, wire, or U-nails for securing the mesh.

Can this mesh be used around a pond?

Yes, it can be used to create a barrier to prevent larger animals from accessing a pond, but ensure it is securely anchored to prevent falls.

What is the thickness of the wire itself?

The product description specifies a 13mm mesh size, but not the exact wire thickness. The galvanized wire and PVC coating ensure overall strength.

Troubleshooting

Mesh is difficult to cut

Ensure you are using strong wire cutters or tin snips. For thicker sections, multiple cuts may be necessary.

Mesh is not holding its shape

Ensure the mesh is adequately secured to sturdy posts or stakes. For larger areas, consider using more support points or tensioning.

Edges are sharp after cutting

Handle cut edges with care, using gloves if necessary. For exposed edges that children or pets might contact, consider folding them over or covering them with a protective material.

Mesh is not rigid enough for the intended purpose

Reinforce the mesh with horizontal or vertical wires, or increase the density of support posts. This mesh is flexible and may require additional support for applications needing high rigidity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unroll the mesh carefully. Using wire cutters or heavy-duty scissors, trim the mesh to your desired size and shape. Secure the mesh to posts, stakes, or existing structures using zip ties, wire, or U-nails. For stronger installations, consider using tensioning tools.

Compatibility: This mesh is compatible with most standard garden stakes, wooden posts, and fence posts. It can be used on various ground types, from soil to gravel.

Care: Minimal care is required. Periodically check for any signs of damage or loosening. Clean with a damp cloth if necessary to remove dirt or debris. The PVC coating offers rust protection, so no special anti-corrosion treatments are needed.
