Hi im new here. blush

I screwed up massively. I got a cage in person and did not check the bar spacing till a brought it home and assembled it... shakehead
The bar spacing is 1" by 4".
I know, escape waiting to happen. :tant2:

I was wondering if a certain type of mesh (linked at the bottom) is safe to use?

(The link is a is a 1/2" inch (0.4" to be specific) plastic hardware cloth, but I don't have gliders yet and can't estimate if they are chewers.

Will be attached with a great number of zip ties.)

I've heard not to do metal, and vinyl-coated galvanized steel is debated, so I'm playing it safe with plastic hardware mesh.

My main concerns:
1: Could the gliders chew through it to escape?
2: Is the door openable by them

Please look at the link for the mesh and the image for the doors if you can.

Link for mesh below
