Material : Insect nets are typically made from materials such as fiberglass, aluminum, stainless steel, or high-density polyethylene (HDPE). These materials are durable, lightweight, and resistant to corrosion and weathering.
Mesh Size : The mesh size of insect nets is small enough to prevent insects from passing through while allowing air circulation and visibility. Common mesh sizes range from around 14 to 32 strands per inch (SPI), with finer meshes offering better insect protection.
UV Resistance : Quality insect nets are UV resistant to withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight without degrading or losing their effectiveness. UV-resistant coatings or treatments help to prolong the lifespan of the netting and maintain its integrity over time.
Installation : Insect nets can be installed over windows, doors, vents, or other openings using frames, tracks, or magnetic strips. They can be fixed in place permanently or installed as removable screens that can be easily attached or detached as needed.
Maintenance : Insect nets require regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Cleaning the netting periodically with mild soap and water helps to remove dirt, dust, and debris that can accumulate over time. Inspecting the netting for tears, holes, or damage and repairing or replacing any damaged sections as needed helps to maintain the integrity of the insect screen.
