In professional pest management, the challenge of keeping rodents out of sensitive spaces is constant. Effective proofing materials can make the difference between temporary fixes and long lasting solutions. There’s a new piece of clever kit that you’ll want in your pest control arsenal this rodent season. Lodi UK’s Knitwire Mesh is durable and versatile, engineered specifically for professional pest controllers seeking high quality rodent-proofing solutions.
Why Choose Knitwire Mesh?
Lodi UK's Knitwire Mesh is designed with a focus on durability, flexibility and sustainability. Unlike traditional proofing materials, this stainless steel mesh offers professional pest controllers a long-term solution that performs under the toughest conditions.
Key Benefits
- Exceptional Durability
The mesh is constructed from high-quality stainless steel. Tough, durable and acts as the first line of defence against pest invasion. Rust-resistant to environmental stress its anti corrosion properties mean it remains effective in wet or harsh environments, ensuring rodent proofing with long-term performance. - Flexible and Easy Install
The corrugation of the mesh allows installation flexibility for the product to be squeezed and flexed seamlessly into irregular shapes, such as pipes & vents, and awkward crevices, holes & gaps. Its adaptable structure simplifies installation, allowing pest controllers to work efficiently without compromising on precision or coverage. - Multi-Size and Multi-Purpose
Lodi UK recognises the diverse requirements of professional pest controllers, which is why Knitwire Mesh is available in multiple sizes and lengths, tailored to the right quantity and dimensions to meet your individual job requirements. The smaller corrugated mesh rolls are ideal for blocking out rodents and insects, whereas the wider flat mesh rolls are an ideal form of long-lasting bird deterrent. - Non-Toxic and Eco-Friendly
Unlike chemical repellents or foam fillers that degrade over time, Knitwire Mesh is a physical pest barrier that doesn’t rely on toxins or harmful substances. An environmentally responsible choice, aligning with modern demands for greener pest management solutions. - Enhanced Structural Integrity
Professional proofing, our Knitwire Mesh holds its form under pressure. It resists unraveling or compression, expanding back out to block entry points and maintaining its structure even when exposed to persistent rodent activity.
Where to Use Knitwire Mesh?
Proofing at its best, think of the Knitwire Mesh as a suit of armour for your customer’s homes, properties and commercial spaces.
- Around Pipes and Conduits
Utility lines often leave gaps where rodents can squeeze through. Knitwire Mesh can be packed tightly around pipes, preventing rodents from accessing internal spaces while allowing air or fluids to pass unobstructed. - Building Foundations and Vents
Foundations, air bricks, and ventilation points are common rodent entry points. The mesh reinforces these areas, blocking access without impeding airflow or compromising structural integrity. - Warehouses and Storage Facilities
In environments where food or goods are stored, even minor infestations can result in significant financial losses. Knitwire Mesh offers pest controllers an efficient way to protect these high-risk areas. - Residential and Commercial Properties
For homes or office buildings, the mesh provides a discreet yet robust barrier against rodent access, particularly in kitchens, basements, cellars, lofts or attics.
When it comes to proofing commercial or industrial spaces, Knitwire Mesh is a go-to for pest controllers who want a reliable solution to rodent entry.
How to Use Knitwire Mesh for Effective Proofing
Proper application is critical to maximise the effectiveness of Knitwire Mesh. By following these steps, professional pest controllers can deliver superior results:
- Thoroughly Inspect the Area: Identify all potential entry points, including cracks, gaps, and holes, paying close attention to areas near food storage, utility connections, or warmth sources.
- Prepare the Mesh: Measure the size of each gap or crevice. Then use appropriate cutting tools to trim the mesh to the desired size. Its malleable nature allows for precise customisation, ensuring a snug fit.
- Install the Mesh Securely: Pack the mesh tightly ensuring there are no spaces large enough for rodents to exploit. For additional reinforcement, especially in larger gaps, consider using rodent-proof sealants or fasteners to secure the mesh in place.
- Inspect and Reinforce: After installation, inspect each area to ensure the mesh is firmly secured. For high-risk zones, layering the mesh with other proofing materials provides an extra level of defence.
