mesh screen

Perforated fabric panel

A mesh screen is a barrier made of interwoven wire, fiberglass, or synthetic material with regularly spaced openings.

Window screens keep insects out while allowing airflow.

Door screens serve the same purpose.

The term is somewhat redundant—mesh already implies a screen-like structure—but distinguishes woven screens from solid barriers or digital displays.
