Description
Our standard insect mesh, sold by the metre for repairs, small screens, or DIY projects where a full 30-metre roll would be overkill. It’s 1.2 metres wide, woven from PVC-coated fibreglass in an 18 x 16 gauge that keeps out mosquitoes, houseflies and most general flying insects while still letting air and daylight through. Available in Black, Grey or White, and supplied in one continuous length if you order more than a metre (the mesh may be folded for delivery). Minimum order is 2 metres.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between this and the full 30m roll?
Same mesh, same 18 x 16 gauge — the only difference is quantity. Buying by the metre makes sense for a single repair or one-off screen; the 30m roll works out cheaper per metre if you’re covering several windows or doors.
Can I use this to repair a torn roller or hinged fly screen?
Yes — it’s the same standard mesh used across our window and door ranges, so it’s a straightforward match for replacing damaged mesh in an existing frame.
