Default Plastic mesh for mushroom tray

I have this plastic mesh, like the type you use on a screen door... can I use that to cover a mushroom tray?

Is there any way to tell if it's going to be toxic? It's not painted, but it's black plastic.

It doesn't smell or taste like anything.

Is a whaleeye shell too smooth for a mushroom to attach to?
