4 Meaning and measurement of mesh
(1) Mesh is one of the spaces bounded by the threads or rigid strands of a net or trap.
(2) Mesh is measured –
(a) in the case of mesh that is rigid, by the average length of 10 adjoining meshes as measured across the minimum diagonal points; or
(b) in the case of mesh that is not rigid, by being stretched diagonally, the average length of 10 adjoining meshes being taken when the diagonally opposite sides touch each other while the mesh is held taut.
