Do mosquito nets need windows?

Although summer has stepped over the middle and it's time to think about autumn, mosquitoes still annoy with their buzz and bites. Therefore, the mosquito net on the windows is now relevant no less than at the beginning of summer. When planning to replace your old windows with modern ones, it is better to immediately order it when you draw up a contract, even if it is winter outside. This will allow in the future not to worry about bloodsuckers. Some companies offer mosquito nets as a gift. If you do not plan to change anything, and mosquitoes annoy, then you need to take your own measures. You can use methods that were relevant many years ago. Hang gauze or buy a plastic sheet and use it by pinning it to a wooden frame. For plastic windows, you need to look for another method.

The easiest option is to buy mosquito nets in the store. They come complete with self-adhesive tape. Velcro is on one side, and the other is covered with a layer of glue. Having prepared the opening of the window where you plan to install the grid, paste the strip, after removing the protective layer of paper. While the glue is setting, prepare the canvas. Its size should be several centimeters larger than the opening. Then we fix the fabric on the frame using Velcro on the tape. The canvas should be in a tight state and not interfere with closing the sash. Such a mosquito net on windows will cost you cheaply and will last several years. It can be periodically carefully removed and washed, then returned to its place.





For doors, it is better to use nets made of long strips overlapping each other. By fixing them on the top of the opening, you completely cover the doorway. When leaving the room, the canvas moves apart. Special weights at the bottom of the bands help them return to their place.

A mosquito net for windows made on the basis of frames is also convenient. An aluminum frame around the perimeter gives the canvas rigidity. The width of the Russian profile is 25 mm, the German counterpart comes with dimensions of 32 mm. The frame mesh is attached in two ways. In the first case, a special profile is installed on the outside of the frame from above and below the light opening of the sash. Then they insert the grid itself.

The second option involves the presence of rods on the vertical sides. Pins with springs are installed on the frame, and mates are mounted on the window. Such a grid is fixed directly in the opening. For doors use a kit that includes hinges and magnets. They allow you to install the door mesh on the opening so that when you exit to the balcony it does not interfere.

The rolling mosquito net on the windows has an additional box where the canvas hides. It is installed above the opening or in the window opening. It is convenient in that, having lowered and snapped the canvas, you know that your child will not go to the balcony. If you need to have a free opening, it is simply snapped off and lifted up. If there are pets in the house, you should think about the “anti-cat” option. Her canvas is made on the basis of polyester. It is more durable than a regular mosquito net. Even the sharp claws of a cat will not be able to deal with it quickly. Now more modern analogues are beginning to appear on sale. Substitute materials that protect us from mosquitoes, fluff and even dust.
