I have been using the screen Marty at Keg Creek sells and it has been working well. Good stiff screen that does what it is suppose to do.

I tried screen for the first time this year. Used it with about half the sets, tried landscape cloth on the other half. Every and I mean Every set with the screen was messed with. They would scratch at it until they uncovered the trap. The other sets were not bothered. I used at least 2 sets at each location, one set with each pan cover. Only the screen was affected. Probably something I'm doing wrong, Used NO BS screen on NO BS Extremes, screen fit perfectly without any bubbled up in the middle. Any Ideas?

Just ordered some from Keg Creek...we shall see. Tried some fiberglass screen this Summer and it was ok, but didn’t work as I hoped. Did end up catching some critters with it, but really hoping I can make this steel screen work like I want. This summer and so far this winter has been WET! Trapping season opened last weekend and we got 5-6” of rain...and they’re forecasting another 1-3” this weekend.

I've bought the Keg Creek pan covers ,some from Graham and looked at and handled No BS covers . They are all excellent screen and hold up well so far through the snow , ice and freezing they have been through . They have been reusable at remakes though I probably wouldn't try to re use them at a new clean set because they get pretty funky after a catch with slobber , blood and catch circle stink so you can go through them pretty quick . The one thing is they are all kinda spendy if you need a lot of them . I decided to make all my sets using Zaggers bedding method (so far its worked out so well that I won't go back to bedding traps any other way if I can help it) . To go a little cheaper I bought a roll of regular metal screen from the hardware store . I cut the screen double the length I need , fold it over and staple the two sides with a few staples each . You get a stiffer cover with an open end that slides over the pan . It holds up any covering and won't blow off the trap in a strong wind . And its cheap .
