All of our netting is custom loomed to our specifications. Our black netting is solution dyed whereby the threads are black to their core making it the most fade resistant netting available. Many netting meshes have column threads weave in and out of row threads and then is simply heat stamped. Our netting is knitted and heat cured such that every time a column thread passes a row thread, the threads are actually knitted together and will not unravel when cut. All of our materials are made for outdoor use in rain or shine.
Our standard mosquito netting mesh is custom loomed to our specifications with 270 holes per square inch. It is an excellent quality that we built our business on over 5 years. You can expect an average life between 4-6 years with reasonable care. Our mosquito netting has about 15% of the density of a bed sheet so that if you threw a bucket of dirt on a white curtain and hung it, you would only see about 15% of the dirt. If your curtain will be subject to rough conditions (stucco, masonry, pets, wild cowboy children), consider our Heavy Mosquito Netting Mesh.
Our Double-thread Weight Heavy Mosquito Netting mesh is so amazingly strong that none of our staff are strong enough to rip even a raw edge. We developed this netting that is very difficult to snag making it perfect for exposure to sharp objects like stucco, brick, rose bushes and kitty claws. Because the threads are double weight, we use a 230 hole count for nearly identical visibility and air flow to our Standard Mesh. This is the STRONGEST mesh we know how to loom and you can expect about 30% longer life. If it is within your budget, the heavy mosquito mesh is worth every penny.
No-see-um netting mesh is really a remarkable fabric that is soft and elegant at 800 holes per square inch. It derives its name NOT from any visual qualities, rather, it shields against a tiny little nasty midge fly unaffectionately called a "no-see-um".
Not all mosquito netting is created equal. Cotton mosquito netting is gorgeous at first, but it is not washable, and will easily snag and frey. The over-and-under nylon mosquito netting meshes stamped cheaply have uneven grids and do not last.
