Solutions are packaged in polypropylene, plastic or glass jars up to palletized 440 gallon liquid totes, and 36,000 lb. Mice can use their feet to push the steel wool around when it is used in large holes, creating an opening around the steel wool for them to fit. Its high thermal conductivity also means it is frequently used in industrial heat shielding, as it conducts heat up to eight times better than other commonly used metals. Unlike copper wool, however, steel wool often leaves particles and splinters on the surface cleaned especially if not done well.

It is very difficult for mice to chew through either of them because they are strong and can hurt the mice’s teeth.Copper wool is used for filtration, plugging holes for rodent/bird control and general abrasive work where other materials are unsuitable. You want the mesh to have a tight fit into the hole so that it can not be bypassed or pushed out by insects or other small animals. Can be used on its own to stop gaps up to 50mm in diameter or it can be combined with expanding polyurethane foam to stop gaps greater than 50mm.

For stuffing into openings, pack tightly into cracks or holes for exclusion of pest such as rats, mice, squirrels and birds.They are created by drawing heavy steel wire through a toothed die, which breaks it into small, sharp pieces. Ceramic wool is often used for thermal insulation, acoustic insulation, adsorption of environmental pollutants, filtration of molten metal alloys, and as substrate for catalysts requiring large internal surface area.
