Grey Fibreglass Fly Screen Mesh 1.2m Wide Sold by the Metre

I bought a fly screen for the three main windows of my flat, and it was great but for one thing- in the July evenings no moths, etc can get in, but tiny midges and small moths CAN! This is a very tough mesh and the holes are much much smaller than standard mesh. The compromise is a naturally blurrier view and slightly less airflow...but NO flies are getting through it unless they have knives...

In summer we like our windows open at night. With some blue tack we put this up inside the window frame. You hardly notice it there but it keeps all the insects out. Of course during the day it does the same job for flies. Sometimes we roll it up, which it does easily and it comes down again without creases or folds. We are very happy with it and it was a cheap way to solve a most annoying issue.

The netting is good quality and is excellent at keeping even tiny insects outside. Midges can get through normal netting but this stops them. The black colour and fine mesh do restrict light entry and the view through the net appears blurred but these are not important issues to me. The strong construction means there is little danger of accidentally tearing it when fitting or in use. One issue of concern is that the netting was sent folded (to save on postage probably) which does leave creases in the net and these are very visible after fitting. It is doubtful that these creases will fade with time. It would be preferable if the netting was white (less obtrusive) and sent in a roll so as to eliminate the creasing.

Nice and strong, very pleased, my husband used it to make fly doors. Colour gray is perfect it just blends in, you wouldn't know they were there. He even made a cat flap

Excellent for the job I wanted and good price

We live next door to woodland and I wouldn't be able to leave any windows open for long without insects coming in so my husband has made mosquito screens on all our top opening windows with some slim wood strops, staples and a bit of DIY know-how the screening was perfect for the job.

Very tough Very small holes and a good supplier best colour in black

The mesh arrived earlier than expected, which was appreciated, and the mesh itself appears to be of good quality. I have given 3 stars because there are some important details missing from the listing. While the seller clearly states that no fixings are included, the listing does not explain which fixing methods are actually suitable for this particular mesh. As a result, I ended up spending additional money on hook-and-loop tape that did not work with the mesh. Buyers would benefit from clearer guidance on the most appropriate fixing method for DIY installation. I also found that the leading edge of the mesh was cut unevenly, which meant I had to trim it straight before use. This was not a major issue, but it added extra work to the installation. Overall, the mesh appears to be good quality, but the listing could provide more practical installation information to help customers avoid unnecessary expense and frustration.
