Just back from our first big trip. Went to holland for 16 nights. Had great time but really could do with a fly screen on the door.
Any recommendations ? I noticed most motor homes have a sort of chenille curtain at door !

We used a voile net curtain on wires to stop all flies etc yet let the air in.Not even nets work as they are little holes and let the tiny midges in but voile works fine.

Used at home thats why thought of using them on the fc we had. Also had a vw campervan one time. Surprising where you can get the wires to reach to, so a cheap easy method to keep them blighters out and sleep well.Yet still have complete access when needed.

At home we use wire top & bottom to make them stay right where their put but access not needed at home so top wire only needed. Use a full length and make them a lot wider than the actual door or window space so you just pleat them up to stay put or tweak as its called.

Both Aldi and Lidl sell fly screen. For both window/doors. Easy fix, touch and close fastener( velcro to you and !) self stick to door/window frame ( make sure you stick the hook side of tape to frame, and the fluffy side to the curtain screen...that way the hooks dont snag the curtain when folded for storage. You have the choice of black/white.
