Our rodent mesh range includes options in copper, stainless steel& galvanised. We have it by the full width, smaller width rolls and by the cut sheet. However, it’s important to note that not all mice are the same size. Some species of mice may be slightly larger or smaller than others, and individual mice can vary in size as well. In addition, mice are highly adaptable and can sometimes find creative ways to get through small openings.

Staples: Staples can be used to secure rat mesh to wooden surfaces such as framing or sheathing. Use a staple gun to attach the mesh to the surface, making sure to space the staples no more than 6 inches apart to ensure the mesh is secure.Feel free to call us if you wish to discuss any of our products – (+ 44) 01925 406 602. We are always happy to help in any way that we are able to. Installation fixings not included but we generally recommend using either a strong silicone adhesive or self-tapping screws, subject to the requirement. Our galvanised steel welded rodent mesh is our best selling product for this application. Welded galvanised wire is corrosion resistant and is suitable for both internal and external applications. Galvanised steel protects the mesh from rusting in outdoor settings, in addition to being a lower cost option than stainless steel.

Mesh Direct makes every effort to ensure that your goods arrive to you within the specified delivery times using accredited couriers. Cut the mesh: Cut the mesh to the correct size, making sure to leave enough overlap at the corners and edges to ensure a secure fit. Mice can fit through surprisingly small spaces. As such, we recommend mesh that has a hole size no greater than 6 mm x 6 mm. As a general rule of thumb, if you can get a biro through a hole a mouse can fit through too. If you’re not looking to stop rats and mice are the only concern then our galvanised mouse mesh will likely do the job. This can be bought in our online shop here. Mouse mesh should always have a maximum hole size of 6 mm x 6mm.Prepare the area: Clear the area of any debris or obstructions, and make sure the surface is clean and dry. If there are any gaps or holes in the soffit or roof, patch them up before installing the mesh. Rats are known to be skilled climbers, and they may be able to climb wire mesh under certain circumstances. However, the ability of rats to climb wire mesh will depend on several factors, including the size of the mesh, the strength of the wire, and the texture and shape of the surface the mesh is attached to. Welding – Possible. If the galvanised metal is properly prepared, they can be welded in the same way as uncoated steel

square mesh provides an effective barrier to rats, but is also ideal to prevent mice as they cannot fit through a hole that small. Corrosion Resistance – Good. It is produced from mild steel that has been zinc-dipped to give it a galvanised finish that protects it from the elements
