  • I live in Sydney and I have built a timber frame 'shed' covered with the plastic fly mesh (the type you use on doors and windows) so I can grow vegies without them being eaten by all the bugs. I built this 6 months ago under a tree. Last week I found the discarded shells of three cicadas on the inside of the mesh and saw where they had come out of the ground. I then found 3 large 'bullet shaped' holes in the mesh were these bugs had made good their escape. This mesh is tough and expensive grrrr!! They seemed to have no problems in cutting a hole in the mesh...
