Using the Mesh Company’s rodent mesh, you can prevent rodents of all sizes from entering your property. The process of rodent proofing is one of a series of steps you should take to ensure the safety of your building against rats, mice, or squirrels. Rodent infestations may lead to serious consequences, including the spread of disease and deterioration of hygiene.

By blocking off potential entry points, rodents can be prevented from entering. You should use a rodent proof sealant or mouse mesh to block off possible entry points. Rodent proof wire mesh is a low-cost product that can be effectively utilized by both professionals and individuals.

If rats or mice wish to gain access to almost any environment in the home, this type of galvanised steel is the ideal choice.

FAQs For This Galvanised Steel Mesh

Why Is This Mesh Recommended Specifically As A Mouse Mesh?

The galvanised steel woven wire mesh is recommended as a “mouse mesh” for a few compelling reasons. Firstly, its aperture of 2.47mm provides holes that are meticulously sized to deter mice from passing through, ensuring a secure barrier. This size still maintains sufficient airflow, a balance hard to achieve with many meshes. Secondly, the mesh’s dense structure, with 8 holes per linear inch amounting to 64 holes per square inch, significantly minimizes potential entry points. Additionally, the robust nature of galvanised steel not only adds to the durability of the mesh but also provides resistance against gnawing, a common concern with rodents. In essence, this mesh combines precision, strength, and practicality, making it ideal for mouse prevention.

How Durable Is The Galvanised Steel Woven Wire Mesh?

A paragon of durability, Galvanised Steel Woven Wire Mesh stands the test of time. Zinc coating enhances the mesh’s resistance to corrosion and rust, especially when exposed to moisture. As a result of this galvanisation, the mesh is robust in a variety of environmental conditions. Furthermore, the mesh’s substantial thickness of 0.71mm makes it more resistant to physical stresses, including rodent gnawing and everyday wear and tear. Last but not least, the mesh is woven to add a layer of durability. In addition to providing aesthetic appeal, this design provides structural stability by distributing pressures and stresses evenly.

Can This Mesh Also Block Rats?

The galvanised steel woven wire mesh, with its 2.47mm aperture size, is primarily designed as a mouse mesh. While this size effectively blocks mice from entering, rats, which are generally larger and more robust, may require a mesh with a smaller aperture for effective deterrence. Rats can squeeze through surprisingly small openings; mature rats can fit through holes as small as 20mm, while juveniles can manage even smaller gaps.

While the thickness and strength of the mesh can deter rats from gnawing through, the aperture might still be large enough for younger rats or smaller rat species to squeeze through. If your primary concern is rat prevention, you might want to consider a mesh with a smaller aperture or combine this mesh with other rat-proofing methods to ensure maximum protection.
