Towards the bottom of the page there is a 20 ft roll or pre cut if you didn't want to cut your own.

If you’re asking about the black grid that’s stapled to the bottom of the cup, that’s actually a gutter screen. It’s sold in 6inch by 3-6 ft rolls at the hardware store, they just cut it and staple it in.

If you want to avoid the waste of all the cups and the gutter screen, you could buy a tupperware container, and just mix up the hornworm feed and put it in the bottom. The poop tends to stay on the outside edges of the container, so it's easy to wipe up. I was looking into the whole cup and screen thing, but tried this and so far it's working well for me. Good luck!
