    Lowes and Home Depot both carry it in store if you can't find it on the website.

    It is sometimes called foil tape.

    Also, don't listen to the people in the store. I asked where hardware cloth and aluminum tape were, and 5 different people didnt know what I was talking about. I asked 3 people in the buidling materials section where hardware cloth is, and no one knew what I was talking about, so I asked for chicken wire and they took me to the right place. I asked 2 people in the adhesives/fasteners section for foil/aluminum tape...no idea, so just find the duct tape and go from there.

    Sorry for the rant. :)

    tin foil and tape down the edges woud work just as good ... or what i do with my screens is use plastic wrap, so the light will shine through - cut small holes to adjust the humidity
