    Answer This Question

    A:  I used a staple gun

      A:  It al depends on where you are goin got put it. I used it for a block in the attic from an open vented area that birds could get into the attic. I just stretched it out and used a simple staple gun with 1/2" staples every 6-12". If you really needed to seal it even tighter, they you could run a bead of silicone along the top and bottom to fully seal any gaps.

                    A:  Sorry, but no...it is really not meant for that use. The material is similar to a screen door mesh...it is really not firm at all.

                    by|Nov 4, 2019

                    A:  This is a fiberglass window screen so this is not nearly firm enough to be bent into place.

                      A:  I think I would spend a few extra dollars and install some gutter guards. This could be used, but it would be a PITA to install. If you live in an area that freezes, I wouldn't use this on gutter...the ice will wreak havoc.

                            A:  Yes. I used it to cover my vent holes in the eves of the house

                            by|May 5, 2023

                              A:  It might be strong enough, but is not wide enough to be useful. It is only 8 inches wide.

                              by|May 5, 2023

                                A:  yes, it is probably strong enough, but at only 8 inches wide, you would need to sew a lot of strips together, at which point it is likely to come apart. I would advise against using it for this.

                                      A:  Yes, he mesh size is 9 x 9 per inch resulting in holes far too small for a yellow jacket wasp to pass through.
