How do I securely attach screen for cricket lid?

[scistar11]

I bought a bigger container to keep my crickets and cut out the center area of the lid for air ventilation. I have metal screening to attach over the area I cut out of the lid but am having a hard time securing it. I bought some of that Liquid Nails stuff but the screen doesn't stay in place. Will someone please share with me how to properly secure the screening or if there is a better way than using Liquid Nails. I feel silly for asking about something like this but I am not having much luck with the stuff right now and want to have this finished before my next order of crickets arrive this week. Thanks!

I used a hot glue gun

Thanks! I'll have to give that a try. It probably dries much faster I imagine.

Yep, its dry as soon as it cools off. Don't burn your fingers, that stuff sticks to everything.
