Roshield Rodent Proofing Wire Mesh 900mm

Want to reduce the risk of rodents and birds getting into wall voids, around service penetrations, or through gaps in external areas. Roshield Rodent Proofing Wire Metal Mesh creates a physical barrier using hot dipped galvanised welded mesh, helping to block access for pests such as mice, rats, and squirrels.

This 900mm wide version is built for proofing work that supports longer term pest control, since mesh is commonly used to help prevent re infestation once control has been carried out. It is also flexible enough to be cut and shaped on site, so you can adapt it to openings around pipework, air bricks, soffits, and other small gaps where ingress may happen. 🐀

Key features

The Roshield rodent proofing wire mesh is a galvanised metal barrier designed to stop pests entering property through gaps and voids in walls. The mesh structure is sized with an aperture of 6mm by 6mm, creating a practical blocking layer where rodents would otherwise squeeze through. Hot dipped galvanised steel welded mesh is chosen for durability and suitability in both internal and external proofing situations.

A major advantage is how versatile it can be during installation. You can place it on the front of air bricks, fit it around pipework, or cover other holes and gaps that could allow rodent ingress. It is also used around soffits to help reduce access for squirrels and birds. If you are supporting professional style proofing work, this wider 900mm format can be helpful where you need more coverage than a narrow sheet. 🐦

Ten en cuenta que fixings are not included, so you will need appropriate methods for securing the mesh in your specific setting. The mesh can be cut with strong scissors or tin snips, which makes it easier to size correctly around the shape of the area being protected.

What to know

Roshield proofing mesh is made to act as a physical barrier, which is different from many softer deterrents. For effective pest prevention, mesh is commonly treated as a vital proofing material that can help reduce the chance of pests returning after control work has been carried out. In practice, that means you are looking to seal the small access routes pests use, rather than trying to rely on a single point treatment.

This mesh can be used within internal and external environments, giving you flexibility across different parts of a property. For example, it can be placed around service entry points where pipework passes through, or used to protect openings where pests may move into wall cavities. Around soffits, it can also help limit access where squirrels and birds might otherwise find a route.

In terms of installation, it is straightforward to prepare the mesh for the job. You can cut it with strong scissors or tin snips, then shape it to match the profile of the area being protected. The mesh does not include a fixing kit, so your plan should include how you will secure it safely and neatly for the conditions you are working in. If you are preparing for wider coverage across an opening, the 900mm width can reduce the need for extra seams compared with narrower formats.

It’s not the only factor in pest prevention, so it is sensible to combine proofing with good site inspection and any necessary pest control measures you have already undertaken. Where there are gaps, voids, and access routes, this wire mesh can help you address them with a durable barrier built for the task. ✅
