Firstly, it is very important to note that rodent mesh is not the same as insect mesh. These meshes are not interchangeable. Rodent mesh is relatively much tougher.

Rats and mice will gnaw through insect mesh with ease. Rat Mesh Aluminium: Aluminium mesh is lightweight and easy to handle, making it a good choice for DIY projects.

However, it’s important to note that rats are highly adaptable and persistent, and may still be able to chew through galvanised metal mesh under certain circumstances. For example, if the mesh is damaged or rusted, it may be easier for rats to chew through therefore it might be ideal to use a more durable, corrosion resistant metal such as stainless steel. Similarly, if the mesh is not properly secured or anchored, rats may be able to create a gap or opening and squeeze through. Can Rats Climb Wire Mesh?
