Galvanized wire mesh is considered more outdoor-friendly as it withstands
heat, cold, and precipitation. It is also a cheaper alternative to stainless
steel. Galvanized wire mesh is most commonly used for animal control and
security. It is strong and durable enough to keep even large hordes of animals
comfortably inside.
Three most common animal-related uses of this mesh are:
Aviaries and enclosures for birds. Galvanized wire mesh can be manufactured
in varying diameters, so even smaller birds can be safely enclosed. For owners
of larger birds, it is important to choose a stronger wire mesh. However,
considering the amount of zinc in a wire mesh, it is strongly recommended for
bird owners to purchase wire mesh that has been welded prior to being
galvanized, and to also wash the mesh with vinegar periodically to prevent zinc
poisoning.
Pet cages. Galvanized wire is very convenient as an outside caging and
fencing material because of its weather resistance. It thus provides sufficient
protection while retaining a free-range aesthetic. However, same conditions
apply as with bird caging - purchase galvanized after welded mesh and ensure
consistent cleaning to avoid toxicity.
Zoo cages. Zoo owners typically opt for galvanized wire mesh enclosures
because of their solid structure and easy installations. The mesh is also
available in different diameters, catering to any animal size. It thus offers an
affordable, durable, lightweight, flexible, and effective barrier for all kinds
of animals.
