Quite possibly the most popular type of mesh, this fibreglass insect mesh is made using a process called weaving. It involves creating fibres from melted glass that are then pulled through a machine to create individual fibres. This mesh type is coated with PVC to protect it from UV rays and moisture.

Our standard insect mesh features an 18×16 gauge weave, designed to effectively keep out various insects, including bees, wasps, large spiders, flies, ladybirds, mosquitoes, and moths.

For areas where smaller insects, such as midges, are prevalent — like parts of Scotland and the UK — we recommend using midge mesh, which has a tighter weave of 30×20.

It is lightweight, durable, and flexible. Making it ideal for applications such as flyscreens, soffits, vents, shading, and more. It depends on what you wish to use it for, as there are different types of mesh for different projects.

Fixing Methods

Fibreglass mesh is easy to install as well. Simply cut to the size needed and secure into place using clips or adhesive. Then use a staple gun, nails or screws. You can then seal the edges using silicone, which will prevent moisture or insects from creeping through.

Did you know?

This type of mesh can also be recycled – but only in certain areas! It is either ground down into a powder or melted once more to transform it into something else. Check with your local recycling centre to see if it something they can do.
