I replaced my existing 2inch round screens with this 2inch round louvers made of aluminum which is much sturdy and more permanent. Birds kept picking at the screen and eventually it was punctured and had to be replaced. The 2inch aluminum lovers were cheaper at Lowes but buying from Amazon was more convenient.

Exactly what I needed to complete a gabled roof installation to horizontal Langstroth bee hives. These allow a good air flow from the two ends of the gable roof. Screens on inside prevent insect entrance and louvers will prevent rain from entering openings. A 51 mm (2" drill bit) makes for a tight fit of the vent and the 3 protruding points on these grab the sides of the opening preventing then from falling out.

If the hole is exactly 2 inches, they work great. If the hole is slight larger than 2 inches it is a little loose and won't stay in. I used some DAO Dynaflex Ultra to help hold it in place. I purchased the smallest tube (5.5oz) and cut the spout so that there was a very small hole for the sealant to come out. I then put a small bead of sealant around the flange of the metal vent on the side that comes in contact with the edge of the hole. Worked great, just don't use too much.

I have woodpeckers chopping through my roof vent holes. I purchased these to put in the holes to prevent them from getting into my attic. These are a very tight fit so much so that I do not even need to use caulking to hold them in place. I’m probably going to have to purchase more because every hole that I have put these in the woodpeckers have just moved to another section that doesn’t have these. I think these are a little overpriced,but too Prevent the woodpeckers from accessing my attic this is a very cheap solution.

These vents are Very small, exactly as described and well made but I couldn't use them for what I intended. Be aware of the dimensions before you buy and you should be happy.

These things are great. I had four bird blocks that had the cheap netting destroyed, 12 holes. I could hear critters running around on the ceiling so I knew I 'should' to do something. I ordered the 2" vents to match the size of my bird block holes. The bird block holes weren't exactly a perfect circle and the vents wouldn't slide easily into the holes, not even a little. I bought a drum sander for my cordless drill. Since the bird holes were 2" I had to use a 1 ½" drum. It didn't take much to sand out the irregularities. I sanded until I could get the vents to just fit, by hand, snuggly and hold inside the hole, but not all the way in. Since I didn't have any PVC pipe lying around the house I took one of the vents to Home Depot. I found a 1 ½" PVC coupler that was perfect for the 2" vent. It fit on the lip of the vent without touching the louvers. Why it was labeled 1 ½" I know not. I can't find any diameter on the coupler that measures 1 ½". It works so I'm happy.Back home, I inserted the snuggly fitting vent inside the hole (louvers down), placed my PVC coupler on the vent lip, put a short 2x4 over the coupler (all with one hand mind you) and tapped it in with my hammer. I couldn't be happier with the results. All 12 holes are now sealed.I suppose I could have used tin snips like 'BD One' did but I didn't. I didn't need any caulking anywhere like Peripatetic did. These things are snug.To see what the dimensions are for this vent visit the manufacturers site:http://mflouver.com/content/rl-100-rlw-100-rlbl-100-rlb-100-seriesMy vents were shipped from ventmyhouse.com

We live outside of town in the Pacific Northwest. Our house is of wood frame construction with a metal roof. Soffit vent holes are essential; standard building practice is to cover them with insect screen or hardware cloth. The local squirrels can chew right through that stuff; we've had them get in several times. Only these louver vent covers, properly installed, can stop them. Sure, I can get them locally, and I like to support local merchants on things like this. BUT - the price for this item was significantly lower on Amazon and I needed quite a few. The order was filled properly, the packaging was fine, and the louvers arrived just as promised. We are now squirrel proof (I hope). Unlike some soffit vent covers, these also have insect screen inserts. I would recommend these louvers to anybody who has soffit vents protected the "cheap" way. Sooner or later bugs, critters, or both will join you inside. One final note - best way to install these is to put a ring of good quality caulk around the hole before pushing in the louver. And be sure the louver slots point down, toward the ground, not up, toward where rain comes from!
