Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will the pure copper wire mesh rust or stain surfaces over time?

A: No — unlike steel wool or iron mesh, pure copper wire mesh does not rust. It will naturally develop a patina over time but will not leave rust stains on brick, wood, soil, or other surfaces, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

Q: Can I use this copper mesh for home distilling?

A: Yes! This food-grade pure copper wire mesh is widely used inside still columns for distilling purposes. Copper is highly valued in distilling for its ability to react with and reduce unwanted compounds, and we recommend using approximately one pound of copper mesh inside your still column for best results.

Q: How do I cut and install the copper wire mesh?

A: The copper mesh is soft and flexible enough to be cut with ordinary household scissors. Simply cut it to your required length or shape, then stuff or pack it firmly into the gap, hole, or opening you wish to seal. Make sure it is compacted tightly so it stays securely in place.

Q: Is this copper mesh safe to use around plants and edible garden produce?

A: Yes. This mesh is made from pure copper with no chemical treatments, making it a natural, chemical-free option for creating slug and snail barriers in vegetable gardens, raised beds, and around plants without risk of soil contamination.
