A mesh lid designed to click onto the lip of plastic reusable cups. A printed mesh is not included, instead, glue on any required mesh. 

I used mosquito screen here, primarily to keep small mantis. you can use a finer mesh or fabric / kitchen towel to keep flightless fruit flies etc. 

Great for field collecting insects with kids as well. 

The included files are specifically scaled to fit the below cups: the outside diameter of the top of these is 89 mm. 
The lid snaps on snugly. Scale the stl file for other size cups. (for cup 95mm: scale x&y to: 100/89*95 %) or edit the parameters in the included openscad file for an exact fit.
