    Q:What is the weave size/density per inch? Looking for small insect patio screen that's tough for pets too.

    Answer This Question

    A:  I don't know how to measure the weave size. But I put it on my screened-in deck, and it certainly keeps small insects out. There is NO WAY a mosquito can fit through the screen. It seems to be the same weave density as regular screen. I've had troubles with raccoons tearing through the old screen... but with this new screen, I've had no such problem.

      A:  I used this for a screen door replacement.   Just like my old screen!

      by|Jan 22, 2022

        A:  I'm not sure about outdoor furniture. People uses it on their windows. I used it for a screen for my patio to keep mosquitos and flies away. I purchased about 12 of them. It worked perfectly.

          A:  Not sure about chewing but I’ve used it on screen porches and it has withstood cats climbing on it and large dog claws with no tears.

            A:  It doesn't let as much light through as a regular screen, but it's not entirely opaque.

            by|Jul 9, 2023

            A:  When I ordered this I was afraid it would be to dark. Turns out that there isn't a big difference between it and a regular screen. It's strong and resists dog scratches.

              Answer This Question

              A:  Very easy, I cut mine with a utility knife. I have had my outdoor cattery coved in it for 3 years with no issues. So as I have needed to replace screens in the house I have been using it.

              by|Apr 27, 2020

                A:  Surprisingly easy with a sharp utility knife. A little harder with scissors.

                by|Dec 10, 2020

                A:  cuts easily with scissors or utility knife.

                by|Apr 25, 2020

                  A:  scissors

                  by|Apr 25, 2020

                    A:  Yes. We used scissors.

                    by|Apr 26, 2020

                      A:  Petscreen can be cut with normal shears or a utility knife.

                      by|Apr 24, 2020

                        A:  Very easy. Standard scissors will do. It is a medium weight plastic

                          Q:What size is the mesh? Is it No-See-Um (20x20) or finer?

                          A:  The Petscreen mesh count is 17x10 and is not considered a No See Um product.

                          by|Feb 28, 2020

                            A:  It is about 11 x 17, definitely not "no-see-um". It keeps out mosquitos, bees, spiders and flies.

                              Q:How is the visibility compared to regular screening?

                              A:  I would say it's about the same. Its darker though. I would compare it to looking through sun glasses.

                                A:  it is darker, but great visibility. the best part is we can stand at our front door window and look at the road, and you can't see us from the road, so it provides privacy as well. Very strong, too!

                                  A:  Obliviously it is less. However, I don't find it a problem. It seems to be holding up well against the occasional dog scratch. The thickness does provide some sun shade here in the Arizona sun. I would do it again

                                  by|Sep 29, 2019

                                    A:  The visibility is still good, although not as clear as regular screen. I think it makes our screened porch a little more private, and because we have both cats and dogs this screening has worked great. Just be sure to use the appropriate spline size because it is a heavier duty screening.

                                      A:  The visibility is good. Slightly darker but not where you notice unless comparing side by side. It’s very durable as well.
