Woven and welded wire mesh are commonly used to keep out unwanted critters. The key to using wire mesh for critter and pest control is identifying the appropriate opening size for the pests in your area.

Stainless steel and galvanized mesh tend to be the more popularly requested materials used for pest and critter control. Stainless steel offers a higher level of corrosion resistance and, to some users, a cleaner and more uniform appearance. Galvanized, when compared to a similar stainless steel, is more economical so it is often used in large quantity.

Again, the key to determining what wire mesh specification will work best for you is identifying the appropriate size for your application. Opening sizes from approximately 2" to 1/4" tend to be highly requested. Featured here, please find some of the more popular wire mesh specifications commonly used in pest and critter control applications. Darby also offers many other wire mesh specifications used in critter control as well as supplies custom manufactured items. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Welded wire mesh specifications are commonly used in a wide array of industrial and non-industrial applications, including animal caging, critter and varmint control, agricultural use, air vents, basket fabrication, food applications, aviary and bird screen, industrial separation fan and machine guards, security retention, basket fabrication, industrial separation and soffit screens.

Residential do-it-yourselfers gravitate towards these specific items because they offer tremendous value and versatility for projects around the home. In most normal environments, stainless steel will have a longer life cycle than a comparable galvanized mesh.

It is important to distinguish between T-304 stainless steel and T-316 stainless steel. T-304 stainless steel is more popular and more widespread in it use, while T-316 stainless steel is generally reserved for marine environments as it offers a higher resistance to corrosion.

The items listed on this website represent many of the most requested specifications of stainless steel welded wire mesh. These items are available from stock or can be custom manufactured. Should you not see your preferred specification, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
