A window screen, insect screen or bug screen is a metal wire, fiberglass, or other synthetic fiber mesh, stretched in a frame of wood or metal, designed to cover the opening of an open window. Its primary purpose is to keep insects, leafs, debris, birds, and other animals from entering a building or a screened structure such as a porch, while permitting fresh air-flow. Most houses in Australia, the United States and Canada have screens on all operable windows, which are most useful in areas that have large mosquito populations. Screens in North America were traditionally replaced with glass "storm windows" in cold climates to insulate the window during the winter, but frames combining both storm and screen panels have become the most common type of screen currently used in cold climates.

Wire Cloth Screen is the most popular usage of woven wire cloth.  Also referred to as "Bug Screen" or "Fly Screen", insect screen cloth is manufactured in several types of materials and screen opening specifications..

Stainless Steel Wire Cloth Screens
This specification group is the most durable insect screening available.
The initial cost of Stainless Steel insect screening is significantly higher than aluminum.  The long term life expectancy of stainless steel screens is worthy of the investment. This specification group is the most durable screening available.   
The 0.009" wire diameter (standard) performs well around children and small to medium size pets.The optional 0.011" wire diameter is stronger to last longer around larger pets.

Wire cloth (woven wire cloth, stainless steel wire cloth, wire cloth screen, wire cloth strainer, industrial wire cloth, metal cloth, wire cloth) is metal wire of vaious alloys that is woven or welded forming a cloth like material. Wire cloth can be formed in a variety of opening sizes and wire diameters. The open area is call mesh count or mesh per linear inch and is the critical information needed when ordering wire cloth.
Types of Wire Cloth
Woven Wire Cloth - The most common and is used for general sorting, screening and filtering applications.
Welded Wire Cloth - Considered to have a smoother surface and can have larger open area and/or larger wire diameter. Intersecting wires are welded together at each junction. The welds provide more strength and rigidity to maintain a uniform cloth.
Both types of Wire Cloth can be cut, formed and fabricated into various shapes to meet particular requirements or reach specific levels of filtration.
Measuring Wire Cloth
Mesh count can be shown as either a whole number, fraction, or as two numbers unless the material is a specialty cloth called space cloth - each item is described below:
Whole Number or Fraction
Mesh Count is identified as the distance from center to center of the parallel wires horizontally and vertically .
Space Cloth
This material is measured by the actual open space between parallel wires, known as clear opening, space size, or open area.
Two Numbers (Example: 2 x 2 )
Mesh Count is identified by the number of actual openings per linear inch horizontally and vertically.
