Paw proof mesh is UV stabilised for longer life and will not rust, rot or corrode. It is also ideal for high traffic areas, especially for families with toddlers and young children who like to poke and tear at the screens and with animal pets which tend to scratch and claw at the same. It is made from fibreglass mesh coated with PVC, thus it is 20 times stronger than ordinary mesh and is a great budget alternative to expensive stainless steel security mesh.
