I can't get past the internal debate in my mind here. Everyone suggests aluminum screen because crickets can't chew through it and it won't melt like aluminum, but what is the downside to fiberglass if you only cup feed and use an alternative material on the top?
I can't seem to find aluminum locally, home depot says its an online only product, but I have a huge roll of fiberglass in my garage. I also never used to like how aluminum would dent when you bump it (I have a 19month old son that I know will touch and ultimately dent from him). I've also heard fiberglass is more transparent... Seems in my situation the two downsides to fiberglass are irrelevant and there are several advantages to fiberglass.
Should I still avoid fiberglass?
Thanks!
