What is the yellow mesh for and why do people use it vs the cap that comes with the unit?

So you can easily refill the bottle on the move without having to "aim" too well.

I replaced mine with one of those shower puff things ($1 at the grocery store) because it is bigger and doesn't pop out after hitting the first bump.

While the cap has slits in it to help refill, the sponge is just easier, IMO

Use them together - lid and sponge.  Roll up the sponge and still it horizontally near the top of the bottle, then pull some of the mesh from the end over the lid of the bottle opening, and then close the lid over top = 99% splash proof + refill as you go with no issues.

This works fine for me too.

So the mesh is to decrease splashing out of the bottle?
