The Orange Monarch Butterfly Magnet is a safety-focused decorative piece designed for mesh screen doors. Its primary function is to increase the visibility of the screen to prevent pets and people from walking through it. Specifications show a 5.5-inch by 3.5-inch surface area, which is large enough to be an effective visual marker while remaining light enough to sit on standard fiberglass or polyester mesh without causing the material to sag.
The magnet is made from a die-cut flexible substrate with embedded magnetic particles aligned to maximize the "through-mesh" grip. The color pigment is embedded directly into the polymer, which helps the orange and black design resist fading from UV exposure for up to 18-24 months. Because there is no adhesive involved, the butterfly can be moved and repositioned as often as needed without leaving residue behind.
This marker is particularly useful for households with birds or small animals, as it breaks up the transparency of the mesh. It is designed for standard residential screens; for very thick security mesh, the magnetic pull may be less effective, so it is best used on standard insect screening.
If you have a large tear that needs a structural fix rather than just a visual marker, the Screenmend Adhesive Patches are a more permanent repair option.
