No, mice cannot chew through copper mesh. Copper Mesh 100% copper is used for mice proofing and mice exclusion. Copper Mesh is tubular, laid flat (approx. 6 inches wide) and then rolled to make it easy for transport and usage.

Copper mesh roll is used to fill cracks in pipes that enter your home, as well as the gaps that are left around vents in foundations, and so on. Easy to cut and then install. It’s much more user-friendly unlike steel wool.

Rodents aren’t able to gnaw at copper mesh. For stuffing openings put a tight seal into holes or cracks for removal of pests such as rodents, mice, squirrels and birds. It can be used on its by itself to close gaps of with a diameter of up to 50mm or with expanding polyurethane foams to block gaps larger than 50mm. When you are using expanding foam simply place with copper the mesh in the void that needs to be filled. After that, you can place the nozzle of the foam container into the middle inside the ball of mesh to release the foam.

Copper mesh wool is used to stuff into tiny cracks, and stop mice from entering. Copper mesh is a great way to keep mice out of entering tight spaces. By putting copper mesh in openings, holes as well as other possible entrance point’s mice are unable to get through and need to move elsewhere for a suitable spot to gather and destroy. Copper Mesh will not be rusty and, more important, mice will not be able to bite through it. But, it needs to be packed tightly with sealant or foam since rats can move it when whenever they have the opportunity. In general, if you seal the gap around a wire or pipe using only expanding foam, mice can eat through it. If you insert Copper Mesh in the hole first, and then apply expanding foam, it will cover the mesh.
