Troubleshooting
Mesh is difficult to cut.
Use heavy-duty wire cutters or tin snips designed for metal mesh. Ensure the cutters are sharp.
Mesh is not holding its shape.
Ensure the mesh is adequately supported by sturdy posts and properly secured at the top and bottom. Consider using tensioning wires for larger spans.
Rust spots appearing over time.
Minor rust can occur on galvanised steel. If significant, ensure the galvanised coating is intact. For minor spots, they are unlikely to affect structural integrity.
Small animals can still get through.
The 50 mm mesh may be too large for very small animals. Consider using a finer mesh or adding a secondary layer of smaller mesh to the affected areas.
