Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Unroll the wire mesh carefully, wearing protective gloves to avoid sharp edges.
- Cut the mesh to the desired size using heavy-duty wire cutters or tin snips.
- Secure the mesh to a frame or posts using heavy-duty staples, zip ties, or U-nails. For ground applications, ensure the edges are anchored securely.
Compatibility:
This mesh is compatible with most framing materials including wood, metal, and plastic. It is suitable for use with a wide range of small to medium-sized pets such as rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, and birds. For very small pets or those that chew aggressively, consider mesh with a smaller aperture or a heavier gauge wire.
Care:
Clean the mesh periodically with water and a mild soap if necessary. Ensure the mesh is fully dry afterward to maintain the galvanized coating. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the protective zinc layer. Periodically inspect the mesh for any signs of damage or corrosion, especially at cut edges or joints.
