This kit can be used to make your own soffit vent hole screens (2 in. diameter) to help prevent birds and critters from getting into your home. Residential structures can have over 200 holes to cover. Home improvement and online stores sell the aluminum louver style covers for +$1-2 each which will add up to a lot of money. This kit along with the simple items below will let you create over 300 screens for a much lower cost.
