I have an atrium in the middle of my condo and have a problem with bird droppings on the vertical gutter to the drain. I want to put up something that deters the birds from flying in & sitting atop the gutter. I would like some cover that allows in light but prevents birds from flying in. Clear or White in color would be best. Your advice? I don't want to break the bank. Something of reasonable cost, that is not unsightly, and that will do the job.Thanks, Fred

from el cajon ca asked:
What is the best material for long term sun resistance when it comes to mesh tarps?
Since mesh tarps will always be comprised of a breathable polypropylene material to purposefully allow some light to come through to prevent mold, choosing a mesh shade tarp may not be the best option if the goal is 100% UV protection. Most of the heavy duty and super heavy duty tarps will be thicker denier polyethylene, so this would be the better option to choose, depending on thickness.

from CA asked:
What tarp type is recommend as a sun protection for a deck, mesh, or solid?
If you want to completely block the sun, I would go with the solid. If you want to block the sun, but want to still allow some light, I would go with mesh.

I'm venturing into the craft show world with hand painted hanging wooden signs; would this be a good alternative to the mesh panels that the craft show sites push down your throat for hanging these signs?
These mesh tarps are not designed to hang things from, so we are unable to share whether this will work for you.

Jesse
from Arlington, TX asked:
I am researching mesh tarps in order to purchase one that will last quite a while. I have noticed the mesh tarps at car dealerships and I suspect that these are heavy duty, weather resistant and especially tough against the Texas sun. I want one that will not fall apart after one year since I want this tarp to cover and shade some of my pool area. What do you recommend?
The mesh tarps in question would indeed be ideal when used as a pool covering as they are both breathable and heavy duty.
