Expert Gardener Galvanized Steel Gray Hardware Cloth, 48" x 25' Roll Fences

This has worked nicely for my garden. It is strong enough to stand on its own. Keeps the critters out and I actually used some to have some of my flowers vine up on the fencing. The materials seem to be of high quality and I didn't find any flaws Overall I am pleased with this and have no complaints and would purchase again

I have a lot of projects to complete around my house and keeping drainage pipes free of debris was one of them. I am very glad to get this hardware cloth. I can cover the entrance to the pipe to keep the leaves out and prevent it from becoming clogged again. The holes in the mesh are 1/2 inch square which will prevent the large leaves from traveling into the drainage route while allowing the water to flow through. Other uses I have found for this cloth mesh is making a bin to place my vegetables to allow air flow underneath to prevent rot. I will be adding this to a potato bin that I am making. The size of this is 24 in. H x 5 ft L. This wire mesh is great for animal cages, small fences, home maintenance such as what I am doing with the drainage pipe as well as crafty DIY projects. You can use it for a variety of things in your garden. I can see using it to protect plants from rodents that may want to eat them or placing around trees to keep the mulch from washing away. I also found another great use of it. I attached it to the back of my deck stairs to keep my small dog from getting under them. It was easy to cut using my wire clippers. This wire mesh has been incredibly useful.

I used this to protect my sweet pea and hibiscus bush since they are just growing. This keeps out the rabbits without looking gawdy or encasing the plant too much. It's pliable and easy to work with and I can keep reusing it. I will be purchasing this item again

We have an old drain catch that runs under the house, it is at the bottom of the driveway right before the entrance of the garage. We have two issues that the Expert Gardener Hardware Cloth has solved. One: We often get a lot of water come down after a rainstorm or snow melt which generally the catch works as expected but sometimes it gets clogged with leaves, dirt, small twigs and street debris. The heavier than normal rain fall this year, and Autumn running a bit longer than usual has created an extended issue for us. We have a sloping driveway with a garage under the house, when that water comes any debris that is in the road inevitably finds it's way to the grate. Two: We have a critter issue. We live in the wetlands where field mice, chipmunks, frogs, snakes, and rats are common place. Yuck, yuck and yuck. We have had a few critters slip in through the grate, through the pipe and into an interior drain that runs under the house foundation and back up into an interior catch. We have tried a few other fixes with not much luck, this seems to work. I laid it under the grate so the weight of it would keep the Expert Gardener Hardware Cloth in place, it works great! The 1/2 inch mesh Catches the unwanted debris, makes it easier to remove it yet still let the water flow through without pooling. Yippy, no ore mice coming in to visit!!! Once the weather gets warmer I plan on wrapping the grate completely with the cloth for added protection it's just too cold right now to fiddle with that.

This galvanized steel hardware cloth is fairly versatile which makes using it for various projects ideal. My husband and I opted to cut it in sections to protect a few trees on our property from damage by wild animals. We also cut off a section to use as a base in our garden before adding rocks to it. I really liked how easy it was to cut the material and bend it to accommodate our projects.
