bug mesh? I want to make a mesh door which Velcroes into my Icarus. I got quite annoyed at not being able to keep the main door open in the evening last weekend due to the lack of bug protection. We ended up using the side door and keeping the main door down.

Any ideas?

No idea where you'd buy the mesh from but you could try making a door out of a mosquito net...

I only found one stockist of no-see-um mesh in UK, but I've placed three orders with Quest which have worked out cheaper, even with the shipping cost, than I could purchase the mesh from the UK stockist. Excellent service too.
