Micro fine steel mesh for ants?

[Matttoadman]

Anyone know what size mesh is small enough to use for ants?

I couldn't find finer stainless steel mesh (<0.5mm holes).

Hi,

You might want to have a look at this Forum topic.  The prices for the various Type 304 Stainless Steel Wire Cloth screens are reasonable.
