insect screens

Window mesh panels

Insect screens are mesh barriers fitted over windows, doors, or other openings to keep bugs out while allowing air to circulate.

The mesh is fine enough to block mosquitoes, flies, and other pests.

Screen doors and screened porches are common in regions with warm summers: We sat on the screened porch all evening without a single mosquito bite.
