Fy screen for back door

4 replies

Can anyone recommend a fly screen for a back door please?

For some reason we get periods of time where several flies enter the house during the summer.

I would like to prevent this obviously. I don't know whether a metallic chain affair or solid screen is better. We have a medium sized dog who likes to wander in and out on dry days.

I don't think that buying one for a fiver in ebay willl work so happy to pay up to £30.

Thank you

We just have the net ones with the magnetic closures and they do seem to work well. I think the noise of a chain one would rival wind chimes and they are not popular according to a recent thread!

You might be able to persuade the dog to push through a chain or magnetic one.
