Mosquito-type netting for windows

[Judd]

Hi, can anybody help me with this please? At the back of our house we have a conservatory which doubles as DH's office and the children's playroom. The windows are quite big and need to be open in the summer or else it is far too hot in there! The problem is that our garden attracts a lot of wasps and bees which then find their way through the windows and into our house.

I have a bit of a "thing" about wasps and bees and don't think that I could be adequately brave if I needed to get rid of one infront of the children. That's why I was thinking about having some sort of netting up over the windows when open. The holes could be bigger than with mosquito nets, more like a net to keep cats out of cots maybe.....
Have you any idea where I could find such a product or should I just Face My Fear (don't want to really. Am very good with spiders and slugs and feel that's enough )

I discovered you could buy a product like this for caravans, so I presume you can buy it for homes too. I just need to check which caravan website I saw it on and then I will get back to you. But in the meantime, maybe you would bear that in mind when you are browsing the net.

voile curtains?
easier to source and hang than specialist netting, still let the sun and the breeze in.

How about \link{http://www.lakelandlimited.co.uk/product.aspx/summer/buzzoff!7327\this} from Lakeland? Not sure if it's big enough, and might be a pain to fit?

google fly screen - gets loads of results e.g. \link{http://www.flyscreenco.com/domestic.html#anchor5\here}

Whoops - sorry - \link{http://www.lakelandlimited.co.uk/product.aspx/summer/buzzoff!6807_3387\this} is the one for windows}

Fab - thanks for your help. I'll have a delve in and a look round. Iota - I think fly screen was the phrase my brain couldn't quite reach! (and I knew mosquito net wasn't what I really wanted!)

my pleasure

I lived my the River Thames for a few years and we had terrible problems with mosquitos in the summer. I used voile curtains which I wrapped around the curtain pole during the day and brought down at night. Would probably be cheaper than mozzie nets too.
