Designed to instantly give your outdoor space a sense of privacy without the hassle or cost of permanent fencing.
the Black Mesh Fabric Privacy Fence Screen is winning over customers with its easy install, tough build, and low price.
Whether you're dealing with nosy neighbors, nearby schools, or just want to block off a messy side yard, this budget-friendly backyard hero is exactly what you need to cozy up your space and cut out the chaos.
And the best part is there's no tools or digging required.
According to the retailer, this mesh screen works by attaching to your existing fence, railing, or structure using integrated button holes, which is a clever alternative to the usual grommets that gives you more flexibility and a neater finish.
Just loop through with zip ties or twine and you're good to go.
The screen comes in a generous 50-foot roll, standing at 68 inches tall, so it's tall enough to offer serious visual coverage without overwhelming your outdoor aesthetic.
It's made from heavy-duty, mold and mildew-resistant fabric, meaning it's built to withstand the elements and look good doing it.
Shoppers say it's not only ideal for home use but also comes in handy for events, construction sites, pet areas, and even community gardens.
It's basically a multi-use, low-maintenance solution for just about any space where you want privacy fast and don't want to spend a fortune getting it.
Affordable No-Dig Privacy Fences: Transform Your Backyard Oasis
One impressed reviewer wrote: 'This is exactly what we wanted and needed. We live by a school and wanted some privacy – this worked perfectly!"
Another added: 'Very simple to install and seems durable. I like the button holes instead of the grommets so that you have options to customize to your area.'
Others raved about how it transformed their space: 'The mesh was very easy to hang, gave our area the privacy we were looking for.'
Even if you're not looking to block out the neighbors, it's also a clever way to cover up eyesores, whether that's trash cans, compost bins, or unfinished corners of your yard.
Think of it as the quickest, easiest facelift your outdoor area could ask for.
And if you're on a tight budget, you can pay in installments, making it even more accessible for renters, DIYers, and first-time homeowners.
It also comes with a 5-year UV warranty, so you won't have to worry about it fading or wearing out under the summer sun anytime soon.
At just under 50 bucks, this simple screen is selling fast, especially as more people look for affordable ways to upgrade their outdoor space without calling a contractor.
How high can a garden fence be?
Despite what many people think a garden fence can be as high as 100m but you need to get planning permission for any fence taller than 2m.
Any fence under 2m does not need planning permission.
However, there are some complications to this.
If you are thinking about front garden fences, restrictions state that fences alongside a driveway can be a maximum of 1m or 3ft.
You would need to get planning permission for putting a trellis on a fence of 2m.
But, if any plant that you grow on that trellis exceeds 2m, you do not need to obtain a permit for the growing plant.
HOW DOES IT HOLD UP TO COMPETITORS?
Though the consensus over the fence seemingly leans towards the positive, that doesn't mean it's devoid of some heavy competition.
For example, The Home Depot's also sells a Vevor no-dig privacy fence, which has a slight price point advantage.
The big box chain's version sells for $44.99, a few dollars less than the latter retailer.
Amazon is also selling a multi-purpose privacy fence for £49.99.
The Lilypelle two-panel 48-in x 48-in privacy fence is made from solid, sturdy pine, a wood known for its versatility and aesthetic qualities.
Its uses can range from protecting (or even hiding) behemoths like cumbersome AC units to shielding your backyard paradise from unwanted onlookers.
It also comes equipped with metal stakes that can be wedged 10 inches into the ground, allowing the fence the ability to withstand high winds.
According to Excelia's product page, the initial price for the fence is listed at slightly over $105 – a 53% markdown from the original cost.
But the Home Depot buy does work out slightly cheaper and gives you more bang for your buck, measuring at 68-in x 50 ft.

‘Ugly & pornographic' 14-tonne mermaid statue to be torn down in Denmark in row over her ‘vulgar' boobs
The statue has been blasted for its poor representation of a female body THE LITTLE MERMAI-DD 'Ugly & pornographic' 14-tonne mermaid statue to be torn down in Denmark in row over her 'vulgar' boobs Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A 14-TONNE statue dubbed "ugly and pornographic" will be torn down in Denmark after a major row over her "vulgar" boobs. The enormous stone figure - known as the Big Mermaid - will be removed from Copenhagen's landmark sea fortification, Dragør Fort, after causing a massive stir. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 A row has broken out in Denmark over a mermaid statue Credit: The Danish Palaces and Culture Agency stated the statue does not "fit into the cultural-historical environment" of the 1910 landmark. This comes as dozens of locals blasted the sculpture's design, with one art critic calling the mermaid "ugly and pornographic". While, one journalist fumed the figure was a product of a "man's hot dream". She said: 'Erecting a statue of a man's hot dream of what a woman should look like is unlikely to promote many women's acceptance of their own bodies.' She added: 'It's truly uplifting that many find the statue vulgar, unpoetic, and undesirable, because we're suffocating in overbearing bodies in public space.' The artist behind the statue, Peter Bech, hit back at criticism calling the breasts "proportional" to the size of the woman. He said many visitors told him they loved the sculpture so he is trying to find a way of keeping it in the town. Others fumed the scrutiny she was receiving was much the same as body shaming. The statue was installed in 2006 at Langelinie Pier in Copenhagen, near the existing Little Mermaid statue but was relocated some years later after locals raged it was "fake and vulgar". Dragør municipality has reportedly declined Peter's offer of donating the mermaid as a gift, reports the Guardian. Shock moment tourist jumps railing and plunges 18ft into Terracotta Army pit before smashing two priceless statues Landmark boss Helle Barth said: "it's just hard to fit in. It takes up a lot of space.' Elsewhere in the UK, a public sculpture of a snail was likened to a "giant poo emoji" and branded a huge waste of public money. The Periwinkle Shelter sculpture, which cost £6k and was woven from willow branches, is designed to imitate the tiny sea snail. It was unveiled at Earnley Viewpoint at Medmerry Nature Reserve, near Chichester. But visitors say the 4.5 metre sculpture resembles a "giant poo emoji" and have slammed it as a waste of taxpayers' money. Solly Everett said: "The idea of marking the rich coastal heritage of the south coast with a giant poo emoji is hilarious. "But given the amount of raw sewage in the sea these day perhaps it is entirely appropriate.

Ancient elite's fingerprint found on LOST seal linked to mystery Biblical doomsday warning and hidden for 2,600 years
Experts find a man's name on the ancient artefact believed to be the same person sent on an important mission by the King in Jerusalem END TIMES Ancient elite's fingerprint found on LOST seal linked to mystery Biblical doomsday warning and hidden for 2,600 years Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A RARE 2,600 year-old clay seal linked to a Biblical scroll that threatened to curse people with hunger and devastation has been uncovered by stunned archaeologists. The exceptionally well-preserved artefact bears a Hebrew inscription and even a visible fingerprint that could belong to the owner. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 The tiny object names a man thought to have been a senior royal official Credit: Twitter/@TMSifting 3 Artefact even has a clear finger print stamped on it Credit: Twitter/@TMSifting 3 Seal is believed to have been used to seal a bag or storage container Credit: Twitter/@TMSifting It reads "Belonging to Yeda'yah (son of) Asayahu" who is thought to have been a trusted royal official at the time. If true, this links Asayahu to a dramatic moment in the biblical account of King Josiah of Judah, who reigned over Jerusalem for 31 years. According to the Hebrew Bible, a scroll dubbed the "Book of the Law" was rediscovered during King Josiah's time which warned of people's sins and impending divine punishment from God. Those who disobey would be cursed with drought, famine, defeat by enemies and other forms of devastating punishment. It was uncovered in the Solomon's Temple which was undergoing repairs in the late First Temple period - between the late 7th and early 6th century BC - after damage by the Babylonians. Workers stumbled across the ancient scroll, known as Sefer haTorah, and immediately alerted the King. A shaken King Josiah is said to have torn his clothes in fear, before enforcing major religious reforms across the land as a result. A group of trusted officials were urgently sent off to purge pagan practices from Jerusalem, destroying altars, idols, and shrines. And one of those among them was called Asayahu, described as "the king's servant" - the same name cited on the seal. "Obviously, we are not sure that the Asayahu mentioned on the sealing is the same that appears in the Bible," Archaeologist Zachi Dvira told The Times of Israel. Oldest tablet of 10 Commandments found after being used as PAVING STONE "However, several such artefacts found in the area of the Temple Mount carry biblical names, and it does make sense, because these were not objects used by common people." Other factors that make it highly plausible is due to the fact seals like these were reserved for officials of high rank. The object, known as a bulla, was probably used to seal a bag or storage container according to experts. WHAT HAPPENED YEARS AFTER THE SCROLL WAS FOUND? Interestingly, Jerusalem was invaded a few decades after the Sefer haTorah doomsday scroll's discovery. The temple where it was found was destroyed after Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar and his army breached the city's walls amid a series of campaigns. Many died from famine as the city was cut off from outside supplies and deadly diseases spread. The King at the time, King Zedekiah - son of King Josiah - attempted to escape the city but was captured. He was forced to watch the execution of his sons before being thrown into prison, where he remained until his death.

New study reveals how many sexual partners Brits think is ‘too many' – so where does your number fall?
Plus, the sex frequency which leads the majority of women most happy BEDROOM NUMBERS New study reveals how many sexual partners Brits think is 'too many' – so where does your number fall? Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) BONNIE Blue may have had sex with 1,000 men in one day - but you may not need as many partners as the controversial figure to raise eyebrows. A new study asked Brits how many sexual partners they thought was a lot during a lifetime. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 A new YouGov study has asked Brits how many sexual partners they think is a lot Credit: Getty The study was done by YouGov and asked participants to state what they consider to be 'small and large lifetime numbers of sexual partners.' They posted the results on X, formerly Twitter, and found that the majority of people thought 20 or more sexual partners was a 'large' amount. And to have had 15 or more sexual partners was seen as large by 41 per cent. Meanwhile, the average Brit claims to have only had sex with four people in their lifetime. If you'd had sex with zero to four or five people, this was seen as being a 'small' number by the majority of those polled. And if you have six to 14 notches on your bed, this was seen as a neither 'small' nor 'large' number. Speaking of the findings, researchers said: 'Whether Britons regard a number of sexual partners as large or small depends on how many people they themselves have slept with. At an overall level, the attitudes of men and women are effectively the same across the range. 'However, the generations do take differing views, with young people being the quickest to start saying that a number of sexual partners is 'high'. Georgie answers your quickfire sex questions 'This is not necessarily surprising – the older someone is, the more chances to have sexual encounters they have had, and it is probably fair to assume that respondents are basing their answers on the tally of a person about the same age as them.' For example, 44 per cent of people who had had one sexual partner, saw 10 or more partners as 'large.' Conversely, just eight per cent of people who had slept with ten to 14 people saw 10 or more as 'large.' The study found that young men and old women were notably more likely to think a given number was 'large'. 3 Bonnie Blue famously had sex with 1,057 men in 12 hours Credit: Olivia West BEDROOM HAPPINESS We recently shared how regular sex is linked to a woman's happiness, according to a study. Women who rated their relationship satisfaction highest had sex at least once a week, with 85 per cent of weekly lovers pleased with their lot. That compared to 66 per cent satisfaction for wives and girlfriends who got it on once a month, and 17 per cent who did it less than that. The study, led by the University of Manchester, questioned 483 women in New Zealand who had been in a relationship within the past year. 3 The average Brit claims to have only had sex with four people in their lifetime Credit: Getty Just over half — 56 per cent — said they were sexually satisfied. Results showed that satisfaction was higher among women who had sex more often, had more orgasms, rated sex as an important aspect of their life and were younger. The study authors said it is not clear whether more sex makes women happier, or happier women have more sex. About six in ten Brits have sex less often than once a week, polling by YouGov shows. Ten per cent say they get lucky weekly and about another 15 per cent claim to do it more often. Writing in the International Journal of Sexual Health, the study authors said: 'Sexual intimacy plays an important role in romantic relationships. 'In our study, less frequent sex was associated with a lower likelihood of sexual relationship satisfaction. 'Women who reported having sex one to two times a month were approximately three times less likely to be satisfied than those having sex two or more times a week. 'This effect was even more pronounced for women who reported having sex less than once a month, who were 25 times less likely to be satisfied. 'Sex and relationship therapists working with women aiming to improve their sexual relationship satisfaction might achieve better outcomes by focusing on interventions that increase the frequency of sex or improve orgasm consistency.' Women aged 18 to 24 were most likely to be sexually satisfied and over-45s least likely.
