Where can i buy mosquito / fly screens for windows

For a quick fix go into any Chinese Bazaar store and ask for window mosquito nets. They sell nets with hook Velcro to cut to size and stick around the window..only around 5 euros each. If you then go into any Ferreteria /DIY store you can buy wider sticky velcro and they cut it to size for you...about 1 inch wide and sold by the meter. The Chinese velcro in the pack with the netting is not so hard wearing as it's thin and comes away easily.

We have had this up on our windows for years and occasionally change the velcro as the heat gets to it and it sometimes after a couple of years or so comes off in places but cheap to put new bits up in places.

We have done the same on our grill doors but use the dark thicker netting from the DIY stores which is sold on a roll..not so cheap but hard wearing and we stick it with the wide hook type velcro like on the windows. Use an old credit card to scrape along the edges to get the netting to stick on the velcro after you cut it to size.You can then take it off to wash it when it gets dusty.

You can get a company to fit mosquito screens but they are expensive. Just depends what you want really.

Hi, thats brilliant !! Thanks for the info.

If you're a DIYer, you should be able to buy proper mossie net kits from the likes of BricoDepot. They give you full protection, and the mossie nets are retractable if you want to clean the cills or rejas from the inside. That's what I did for the two windows in the older party of our house.

We have found both in ACI or Brico also Leroy Melin
