Pests such as wasps, bees, ants, and spiders are deterred by our Air Vent Covers. With 2mm holes, the fine mesh structure acts as a barrier, making it almost impossible for such pests to pass through or establish nests behind the covers. While these insects are small, the mesh size is strategically selected to prevent them from escaping while still maintaining optimal airflow. Properly installed, the covers create a solid seal against the building, eliminating gaps or spaces that pests can exploit. Homeowners can maintain a cleaner, safer living environment by using air vent covers because they provide a physical barrier that prevents infestations. Can They Be Used for Internal Vents? Most properties with wooden floors on the ground floor will have a void, or gap, underneath. The air in this void can get stale and humid if it is not encouraged to circulate freely. Humid air carries a great deal of moisture, in fact the warmer the air the more moisture it can hold. The mesh is a copper mesh of 1mm gauge with 1mm x 1mm square holes ideal for preventing ingress of flies, wasps and rodents. Well built. Was easy to fit using glue. Installed them over a year ago and I’ve had no more mouse problems since.

Excellent products and great customer service. I’ve bought several of the air vents and the new doorstep guard. Look great and do the job well. Customer service: The Mesh Company place a high priority on service and offer excellent support and assistance to our customers. This can help to ensure that you will have a positive experience when working with The Mesh Company.The flood screen is a cork gasket that can be used to replace the mesh when flooding is imminent and likely to occur , it is then removed when danger has passed. It is useful to keep on standby for ground floor installations especially in low lying areas, properties near the coast or rivers or properties in an area with a history of flooding. It is not suitable for proofing against rats and squirrels within medium and high-pressure areas but will work against unestablished populations. If unsure, please upgrade to our solid aluminium vent guards that offer 100% protection against any pest.

Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;) If the suspended timber floor has been removed and replaced with a solid concrete floor, the void will also be filled in with concrete, so there’s nothing to ventilate. This can be done very simply with 4 inch (100mm) drain pipes laid side by side as extension tubes for your vents.Without adequate ventilation, suspended timber floors will experience a buildup of condensation in the colder months; this can lead to damp problems, rot, insect infestation and the structural collapse of the floor.
