Ventilation for lobsters

[Matttoadman]

What percentage of the lid of a lobster bin should be screen?

Anyone..? I need to fix my lid by wed. Lots of screen or drilled holes?

Humid or dry?

I would personally make the lid about 40/50% screen. Never messed with the stuff though, so I am no expert on the subject. Seems like these guys are not picky when it come to moisture, so dry or humid is up to you.

Ok, I normally cut holes in my lids with my jigsaw but it burned up. So before I started looking for creative ways to do it I wanted to make sure.
