Hi, anybody know where to get just normal aluminium frame insect screens. Have seen the flexible magnetic screens but just want standard.

Winning the "battle of the bugs" here in Bali is almost a "Mission Impossible."

I'm looking forward to one day meeting a person living here who has been able to win that war.

Good luck and please let us know how it works out for you.

Cheers!

Seems like they are very hard to find. Have not been able to search them out and have not had anybody come up with any ideas. Seems so simple but obviously not.

Have you tried living without screens?  I've been here 24/7 for going on 18 years and never gave window screens a second thought.

Mosquitos are always around and my daughter has already had dengue once. Screens should be so easy and to leave your home open to the breezes all night without a second thought is a nice thing.

Have you tried what locals often do...which is to plant lemongrass around your house?  That's been our first line of defense against mozzies for many years, and it works very well.
