OMG Aquatics Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 Does anyone use hair net to make carpets or hold mosses down? Does any type of Hair net work? Where do you guys get your hairnet from if you used it for carpets before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie1208 Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 I tried hair net - forget it - mesh is too large. Look for the sink scrubber things (got mine at CVS). The mesh is small and conducive to what you want. They are like a hair scrunchy. There is a string on the inside - cut it - then you have a tube of this material. Cut it to length. Then make a full length cut so it will lie flat. I've the laid/stretched it across and used a small zip tie underneath. Buy two and you will have enough for a lifetime. Big pharmacies, walmarts will def have them. I just don't know what they are called Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG Aquatics Posted October 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 Do you think it's safe to use those soothing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elo500 Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 I've used those before. I prefer the white ones, don't show up as much as the pink does. You can even stretch it over the ends of wire mesh and don't have to tie anything. Just sticks to the wire edges. Also great for diy media bags because it's a tube. Just fill and tiie off both ends.
