Reddit reviews Window Fly & Biting Insect Screen

I mentioned this in another thread, but I feel that more should know about my (mostly) insect free room.

> Do what I did: buy some cheap fly screen (I got mine for about a fiver from here) with thin, adhesive, velcro hook strips. Stick the strips around the window and stick the net screen (trimmed to size) to the velcro. Voilà: moth proof room, even with open windows. You can sit and laugh at the stupid buggers as they try to fly into your room, but bounce off.

> I had this up all last year and I could count the number of moths I found in my room on one hand; all, presumably, from other parts of the house. It might cost a little time and effort, but the pay-off is insurmountable.

> No need to thank me; just pass on this information to all fellow haters of moths (forever damned be their wings for their tendency to fly towards me).

Seriously, bathing in DEET before going to bed? I gotta know, are y'all taking the piss here or do Irish people literally not know about window screens?

Edit: if you do buy that particular screen, get some proper Velcro tape as well, because the stuff that comes with it is shit.

Here ya go!

Or, for a more durable screen: Try this one

To use it, you cut it out to the same size as your window, then use a staplegun to secure it around the wooden window frame.

I bought something like this a while ago and it works bloody well
