Fly Screen Installation

Fly screens are a simple yet effective addition to your home that can make a significant difference in reducing the presence of pesky insects. They keep these pests outside while allowing consistent airflow into the home.

While fly screens are common in countries with warmer climates such as the USA and Australia, they are becoming increasingly popular over here in the UK, for both the domestic and commercial markets. MJ Backhouse has decades of experience in all thing’s pest control, and we have all the information you need regarding fly screens here.

How do fly screens work?

Fly screens create a barrier that allows air to pass through while keeping insects out. The mesh used in fly screens is fine enough to block the entry of common flying pests like flies, mosquitoes, and wasps.

When properly installed, fly screens provide a nearly invisible barrier that maintains ventilation and visibility while keeping bugs at bay.

Where should I install a fly screen?

Fly screens can be installed in various places around your home. Here are some common areas where you can install them:

Windows: Installing fly screens on windows is a popular choice, as it allows you to keep your windows open without worrying about insects entering your home.
Doors: Installing fly screens on doors, especially those leading to outdoor areas like patios or balconies, can help create a bug-free zone.
Porch or Patio Enclosures: If you have a porch or patio, consider enclosing it with fly screens to create a comfortable outdoor living space.
