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

What is the best material for long term sun resistance when it comes to mesh tarps?
1 Answer
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.

Per our manufacturer for our PTM Mesh Tarps, these tarps provide up to 73% shade protection and 27% light allowance and allow air and water to pass through. They are available in your choice of black, blue, tan, green and white plus a large range of sizes.
