Our fibreglass fly mesh is a durable and versatile 18×16 gauge insect mesh designed to help keep out flies, wasps, mosquitoes, moths, ladybirds, large spiders and other common insects while still allowing airflow.
Manufactured using woven fibreglass yarn and coated in PVC, this fly screen mesh is lightweight, flexible and resistant to UV and moisture. Its strength and versatility make it suitable for a wide range of applications including flyscreens, soffits, vents, shading and general insect screening projects.
Commonly used in window and door flyscreens, this fibreglass fly mesh offers a balance of airflow, visibility and insect protection.
We source our mesh from trusted suppliers and carefully inspect each roll to ensure a clean finish and consistent quality throughout.
What Insects Does This Mesh Help Prevent?
Our standard 18×16 fibreglass insect mesh is designed to help prevent common insects including:
For areas where smaller insects such as midges are common — particularly in parts of Scotland and across the UK — we recommend using a finer midge mesh with a tighter 30×20 weave. Insect bites can be irritating and uncomfortable during warmer months, particularly around open windows and doors.
Installing Fibreglass Mesh
Fibreglass fly screen mesh is lightweight and easy to work with. It can be cut to size and secured using clips, adhesives, staples, screws or nails depending on the application.
For a neater finish and improved sealing, edges can also be sealed with silicone to help reduce gaps where insects or moisture could enter.
Commonly used in both window and door flyscreens, fibreglass insect mesh offers a good balance of airflow, visibility and insect protection. Its lightweight and flexible construction also makes it suitable for DIY screening projects, including soffits, vents, caravans, garden structures and other custom applications where ventilation is required.
