We get a lot of biting gnats. Is the netting small enough to keep gnats and "no see-ums" out?

I think it is. The holes are really small. I use it in the wisconsin north woods and it's kept every thing out from that region.

We used this netting over the crib and stroller for our 4 month old granddaughter on a camping trip and she had NO bug bites of any kind.

I don't know if this works on gnats because that was not my intended use, I just wanted to disrupt the life cycle of biting flies and such. Check on google to find what is most effective, good luck!

I cannot really tell you. I haven't used it in a situation where there have been fruit flies. I think the mesh would keep just about everything else out, but those fruit flies are pretty tiny. Wish I could be of more assistance.

I don't know exactly about mosquito net, but I have a screened porch I have used it on and it seems to keep bugs and insects out. Hope this might help. I've been happy with the screen.

I would have to say "no" but we didn't use it but once last year and had no problems with no-see-ums where we were. For keeping out flies, bees, and other bugs it is great. Make sure the bottom makes contact with the ground everywhere so they can't get in.

Yes, it is small enough mesh. I took them camping with us and they were very helpful. No flies......as long as everyone remembers to put the cover back on.

The mesh on the fly screen is VERY small. I don't know that we have used this tent where there are no-seeums, but I have been around them and I don't believe they could get through this tent's mesh.

Thank you for the reply, but I was referring more to the mesh itself if it is fine enough to keep very tiny bugs out.

It would have to be pulled tight. The gague net is pretty thin but very durable. Seems like it might be a difficult task? I'm pretty sure they have std sizes and they may be big for your application, if you have to cut them it could be rather time consuming.

The mesh is about 2" square, so it would keep out larger birds like Jays and Robins. Maybe a small finch could squeak through. I use it as netting to protect my chickens from hawks. I have tried cheaper netting, but this stuff is much better quality and lasts much longer in the sun.

It seems to work best on soft-skinned "bugs" like spiders so I would think it work well for gnats...but couldn't say for sure, never tried...

Hi Mindy, Unfortunately, I cannot answer your question because I did not end up using it last summer. My was in the bassinet element of the pack n play and the netting would fall on my son's face or he would pull on it. Sorry I'm not much help. I wish you luck.

I think you mean fray. I catch a few with mine, but in my opinion f you want to catch fray, you have to get a net with a smaller mesh.

our cottage is by the water and near a forest and there are mosquitos. It has been real good at keeping the little suckers out. Be aware that when you receive it check for the plastic shower curtain rings that hold the mosquito net in place; they forgot ours and it was scramble to find replacements

I'm not sure if there are gnats in the trap....The trap right now has fleas and 3 flies...we don't get a lot of gnats inside our home. But I recommend getting this. I put it in the living room and it doubles as a night light, then I move it to our bedroom during the day. We have had it for a week and a half. The light burnt out last night because we leave it plugged in all the time. But it is a easy fix...its just a standard night light bulb. You should get the refill pads also (set of 3 I think) the trap comes with one extra.

will probably keep out rodents but not something as small as a spider or bug

I don't think this screen has a fine enough mesh to keep out fruit flies. (Does anything?) I bought it to keep out mosquitos, which it does very well. That said, you could probably impede a great number of them. Just don't expect total prevention.
