Just catching up on this forum, all new to me as of today. If the bug zapper works I think an electric fence power supply would fire those lil' buggers right into the plaster- no glue needed.

Regarding screen, a tea strainer screen is at least 3x finer than window screen. Too fine though and the static grass would clog up probably from my experience with the stuff. Scenic Express has a good selection of grass on line. Also, Small Parts Inc has various gauges of screen. I bought screen from them a while back for sifting commercial ballast to true N scale size.
