They are found in most HFS.
I don't use them anymore. I just put a piece of cheescloth over the top secured with a rubber band on my jars. Works great.
You could check at a hardware store and cut it yourself. I now use a fine strainer and put the sprouts back in the bowl after I drain them.
I use an old steam stack for large seeds and a sprouter stack for small ones but I always found the netting used for underskirts very useful for jars.

Cut pieces of old (clean or not - your choice) pantyhose and rubberband them on or if using a regular "canning" jar, screw the ring on.
OR
Paint straining bags work well.
OR
Alissa sells sprouting bags in her store.
Just soak your grains in a bowl.
After the required time, strain the grains and put them back into the bowl.
Cover the bowl with a clean dish towel and rinse them every few hours.
Watch em sprout!
No mesh or special equipment needed at all!
