The anti-insect net also called an insect screen is used to guard against the incursion of insects, flies, thrips and bugs into a greenhouse or the polytunnels.

The insect mesh is made of HDPE monofilament woven fabric which allows the penetration of air but is closely knitted that it does not allow the entrance of insects into the greenhouse.

With the use of anti-insect nets in greenhouses, insects and flies that damage crops and transmit diseases cannot find their way into the greenhouse. This can go a long way in boosting the health of the crops and assuring great crop yield.

With the use of this product, the use of pesticides will be significantly reduced as insects will be blocked from entering the greenhouse.
