Using fiberglass mesh as a barrier layer in a terrarium has many benefits.
🌿It provides a sturdy physical barrier that prevents the soil from mixing with the drainage layer. This helps to maintain a healthy and stable environment for the plants in the terrarium.
🌿The mesh allows for good drainage of any excess water, preventing water from accumulating at the bottom of the terrarium and causing root rot. The mesh also helps to distribute water evenly throughout the drainage layer, which promotes healthy root growth.
🌿Fiberglass mesh is very durable and is a long-lasting material. It can withstand the moist and humid conditions of a terrarium without degrading or rotting. This means that it can be reused multiple times, making it a cost-effective option in the long run.
🌿Finally, fiberglass mesh is very easy to work with and can be cut to size to fit any terrarium. It can also be easily cleaned and sterilised to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria or fungi.
