About this deal

If you have double hung or casement windows and are scratching your head about what is the best DIY fly screen solution to protect your family and house from those irritating, dirty and potentially disease carrying insects – DIY magnetic insect screens are the ideal solution. Carefully fit the self adhesive VELCRO® Brand fastener onto the now clean & dry surface. Do so when the room temperature is 18°C or higher in non-humid conditions. If the temperature is low, warm the frame and the VELCRO® Brand fastener with a hair dryer, or fan heater in an effort to increase the bond. WARNING: The VELCRO® fastener cannot be re-positioned if you make a mistake. You will need to start again with new VELCRO® strips. When doing so ensure there are no traces of glue left behind and the surface is spotless again.

Whether you are looking for a DIY window screen for the home, or for a business premises, these versatile DIY insect screens will deliver years of exceptional performance without any expensive maintenance or cleaning costs. Magnetic fly screens can be custom adapted to fit windows of all types and sizes, simply and easily.Finger tabs on the bottom corners of each magnetic fly screen enable you to pull the screen away from the window to give you easy access to open and close your window. I bought 3 with the intent of putting them in the most important rooms for ventilation (baby’s room, living room, master bedroom) but I will be buying more in the near future to finish the house. Thank you for your life-changing product! By applying pressure this activates the ‘Pressure Sensitive Glue’, so it is important to pay special attention to the corners as these are often missed. This effective low cost (cheap!) temporary flyscreen allows you to have a high quality of life without the worry of mosquitoes, lizards or other insects in your house. It is easy to remove for cleaning (just spray/clean with water and detergent). Many of the products and DIY examples we’ve seen are custom cut to fit the window of a particular vehicle. They usually have some kind of seam around the edges, into which magnets are sewn.

As well as creating a comfortable working or living environment, a magnetic window fly screen system is also fully compliant to your local food agency which means they are the ideal choice for hotel kitchens, food manufacturers, and busy restaurants. I cannot overstate how life-changing these screens have been! I was not sure how they would fit as we have very large (close to 1.4×1.3m windows in every room of the house) but the ability to easily lift up the bottom edge of the frame and open the windows to let in a fresh breeze or to cool the house down on a hot summer night has been utterly HEAVENLY!The frame is made from flexible (1/2 inch | 12.5mm wide) PVC strips that is very durable and has a professional finished appearance (vs cheaper “recycled” plastics with impurity that is brittle and matt) The overall effect of having slimline frames and the fly screens being easily DIY custom fitted to individual windows results in a very tidy and professional looking finish that often gives a lifting effect on a room. They are the perfect addition to any home. All magnetic fly screen kits come complete with easy to follow instructions and require no screws, no nails, and will give you no hassles.

Their construction consists of a thin disc magnet sitting in a steel shell. This makes the brittle magnets more durable, and… If you have double hung or casement windows and are scratching your head about what is the best DIY fly screen solution to protect your family and house from those irritating, dirty and potentially disease carrying insects – DIY magnetic insect screens are the ideal solution. Magnetic fly screens can be custom cut to fit windows of all types and sizes, simply and easily. One of the magnetised strips (you get x2 – one that is attached to the frame – the second which is attached to your window frame) is equipped with a 3M adhesive tape for strong adhesion to your window. WARNING: Do not pre-cut the VELCRO® strip and attach to the screen; fix directly to the window frame, one side at a time and then cut.First we made a paper template or sewing pattern for the shape. Car windows are bigger than you expect, so you’ll need a big roll of paper to make a pattern. The bad: There’s obviously a little more setup involved each time you put up the screen. It doesn’t look quite like a finished product like some nicer ones we’ve seen. It can be a little challenging to make sure the screen is taut between the magnets. It should be held close enough that bugs can’t sneak in! Magnetic flyscreens have been around for many years and like any product, there are better quality models and brands and then there is the rest. It is basically a piece of mesh fabric you can get from a fabric store for Halloween costume and a roll of double sided tape – all shipped all the way from China which you can easily buy from a store Simple to maintain & highly durable, our magnetic insect screens are ideal for those hot summer months where a steady stream of cool air is always a welcome addition inside any room.

The flexible PVC frame of the magnetic insect screen is far less bulky and obtrusive compared with traditional aluminium framed fly screens. This effective low cost (cheap!) window screen allows you to have a high quality of life without the worry of mosquitoes, lizards or other insects in your house. It is easy to remove for cleaning (just spray/clean with water and detergent). On older homes where no 2 windows are the same size and sometimes out of square also, magnetic screens are ideal because they are individually measured to fit with millimetre accuracy to ensure that they fit perfectly.” They are very durable and flexible making them not only easy to clean but also easy to use and potentially store away when not required (eg during those winter months).WARNING: Do not touch the adhesive strip with fingers, and ensure your scissors are clean and sharp. Answer: The screen is made of durable and quality materials, that are hardly visible (aesthetics), that do not rust or shrink and are washable.
