Is the mesh screen small enough and the joints tight enough that I can feed my squirrel tree frog fruitflies without the fruitflies escaping?

No, I don't think the joints are tight enough to prevent fruit flies from escaping.
1362115
no, the fruit fly would escape, too much gap in the panels (crickets escape) and screen too big for them.

hi, Um I'm going to air on the side of caution and say no and I would honestly look into the Exo Terra just because of the ease in feeding smaller prey and the humidity factor. Thanks.

Although I don't know much about tarantula care or needs in terms of space, temperature and humidity, I would say yes as I'm guessing you're wondering about the security of the habitat. Both the screened top of the as well as the glass doors are both held securely in place by locking mechanisms and I don't see any way the animal could escape from it. Mine houses the tiniest little gecko and she's pretty secure in there. The glass doors do open forward and there's the most infinitely small space where the doors meet, but about the only thing that may escape on occasion is one of her fruit flies, so just be aware of where the animal is when you open them.

I think it would....I have not seen fruit flies in my house since I have bought these...I do not like leaving plates of food exposed for more than 5 min unattended so I love them( mesh food covers) I got 2 of them

Yes. For the most part. Its not going to get stuff that is smaller than a pea though. You get to a point where the slits are too close together and it doesn't work at all. This one is pretty close to perfect imo.

The mesh is like a window screen. Since I am not familiar with quinoa you must be the judge.

It's a tight fit with the rain fly, but yes it does fit. A lot of times it's better to just use the snake skin for the hammock and bug net, and set up the rain fly separately above the hammock, thw way when it is raining you can set up the rain fly first and work under it set up the hammock and when you are ready to get in you can just slide the snack skins off and climb in. Dry.

I am not sure. We are using it as a privacy screen. It seems to have a tight mesh but as we have not used it specifically for mosquito protection, I cannot honestly recommend it for that purpose.

Hi Kate,A determined wasp could crawl through the 1/4" mesh. They manage to invade my log house through cracks that are much smaller than that. How about window screening? You can make frames with legs from schedule 20 PVC pipe and corner/tee fittings, available at hardware stores. Cover the frames with window screen sold in rolls at the hardware store. You can make clips from short pieces of halved PVC cut with a jigsaw to hold the screen onto the frame. The Dewitt netting is perfect for keeping birds out of strawberries and pie cherry trees, but I very much doubt it would stop wasps. Hi Kate,A determined wasp could crawl through the 1/4" mesh.

No, the screen is to tight and the overall feeder is way to small. Spend the money and get a big feeder.

Its about 3/4" mesh. Small enough that no birds will get thru. In fact so far this year NOT a single bird has even tried to perch on the netting & peck at the fruit. Where as last year without the netting 75% of our fruit was lost due to birds picking and then ants comming to help feast.

I am using the netting on my fruit trees, so I can't answer your question, sorry.

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.

The mesh size is from 1/8 to 1/4 inch. Its a bait net, so should hold those little crawdads.

Yes, the mesh is fine enough to retain raspberry seeds--the challenge will be compressing the puree against the mesh! Maybe a large flat spoon to press the raspberry mixture against the mesh?

I'm not sure of the mesh size in dimensions, but it is smaller than a fruit fly.

I think it would if you built a frame around it onto which you could adhere the mesh. I used it for blueberry bushes and it worked for me except the squirrels did find ways in to get the blueberries.

Don't know how small the flies are. But it even keeps all but the smallest nats off. It has a very tight weave, the holes in it are very very small.
