Great piece for sun protection, but have yet to try it against insects. I'm positive it Will stand great.

For a close up butterfly or a beaver one hundred yards away, these will serve you well. The only draw back is the warning that they are not water proof; I hesitate using them in the rain.

They should be on the ad for them. Having a senior moment and cannot remember where I put them. They nicely held queen-size blankets or quilts and seemed vary well-made. Definitely bug-proof. Sorry I cannot be more explicit. They're cheap. Give them a try. Linda

Fabric seems thick enough to provide protection, I guess it would depend on how large the mosquito. Used repellant on the material before use that will keep them away.

I can't answer that question for you. My bugs arrived fine, all alive, etc. but when I put them on thehibiscus bush to take care of my problem they were all dead within one hour! Have no idea what wentwrong.

They are stiff enough to stand up on their own. I keep a set on my desk in a vertical sorter and they stand up straight without bending.

The holes are cut on an angle and they can't fly sideways I guess. I've had my trap attached for 3 weeks i've caught 35 bees so far. Caught move than 35 last year.

I am not familiar with the sand flies of NZ. If they have any size of consequence, I would imagine the mesh would be fine enough to keep them out. My disappointment came from its inability to keep out the very tiny gnats of Wisconsin.

They don't have insecticide nor do they have anything to attract the bugs. They're entirely passive, just a patch of very strong glue on a piece of paper. Bugs are VERY predictable. They like to skitter around where the wall meets the floor, so just put the traps near the wall and in corners.

I used Alien Bee's with them for lighting. It does not come with a stand. So you will need both lights and a stand.

They stand very well. Based on their weight, you should have no issue on carpet

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.

yes, they stand up real good, but don't expect to move them around after one season,you will need to buy some more to replace them. I hope that helps.

I have one hanging on either side of my porch, they are very quiet and the light is not intense so close is ok ! They by no means clear out all the bugs but over time they catch an aweful lot of them !

All stand, but Sandy (squirrel) tends to have trouble staying upright. Just tested them:). My kids haven't complained about that issue, but I wanted to double check. Hope that helps!

I have raised praying mantises before and they might not be able to escape, but I think the fruit flies might. It would be a close call on both of them. The screen is very small, but so are they. I used a piece of very small mesh material to and doubled it over on the top of he jug I had them in. Maybe you could put something like that on top until they grow just a little.

I bought the Garlic Barrier to keep away white flies and and spider mites and ants. They also help keep other insects away from plants. I bought my over a year ago and it is working for me. Remember it needs to be mix with water. I took a sponge and placed it with some of the plants. My garden is in pots on my deck.
