An anti-insect net (also called an insect barrier net or insect mesh net) is a lightweight, woven or knitted fabric made from durable materials like high-density polyethylene (HDPE). It is designed to physically block insects, pests, and birds from entering protected areas while allowing air, light, and water to pass through.
These nets are widely used in agriculture (greenhouses, nurseries, open-field farming), horticulture, and even residential settings (e.g., window screens) to prevent pest infestations without relying heavily on chemical pesticides.

ShanghaiLead Time:
25 daysMaterial: UV-stabilized HDPE or polyester for long-lasting durability.
Mesh Size: Ranges from 0.2mm to 1.5mm, depending on the target pests (e.g., aphids, whiteflies, thrips).
Color: Usually white, black, or green; some have reflective properties to repel insects.
Permeability: Allows airflow and sunlight while keeping pests out.
Chemical Resistance: Does not degrade when exposed to pesticides or fertilizers.
UV Protection: Treated to resist sun damage, extending lifespan (typically 3–8 years).
Type | Mesh Size | Target Pests | Common Uses |
---|---|---|---|
Standard Insect Net | 0.4–0.8 mm | Aphids, whiteflies, leafminers | Greenhouses, nurseries |
Thrips-Proof Net | 0.15–0.35 mm | Thrips, mites | High-value crops (e.g., strawberries, peppers) |
Ventilation Net | 0.8–1.5 mm | Larger insects, birds | Side vents in greenhouses |
Bee-Proof Net | <1.0 mm | Bees, wasps (for controlled pollination) | Seed production fields |
✔ Pest Control Without Pesticides – Reduces chemical use, making crops safer for consumption.
✔ Improved Crop Quality – Prevents insect-borne diseases (e.g., viruses transmitted by aphids).
✔ Climate Regulation – Provides shade and reduces wind impact while maintaining airflow.
✔ Cost-Effective – Longer lifespan than chemical sprays; reusable for multiple seasons.
✔ Pollination Control – Can exclude or allow bees depending on mesh size.
Greenhouses & Tunnels: Covers entire structures or side openings.
Open-Field Farming: Used as floating row covers to protect seedlings.
Fruit Trees & Vineyards: Wrapped around trees to prevent fruit flies.
Poultry & Livestock: Acts as a fly screen in animal housing.
Home Use: Window and door screens to keep mosquitoes out.
Installation:
Secure edges tightly with weights, clips, or frames to prevent gaps.
Ensure proper tension to avoid sagging.
Maintenance:
Clean periodically with water to remove dust and debris.
Check for tears and repair promptly.
Store properly when not in use to prolong lifespan.
Anti-insect nets are an eco-friendly, sustainable solution for pest management in agriculture and beyond. By selecting the right mesh size and material, farmers can enhance crop yields, reduce pesticide dependency, and improve overall plant health.
