I have fly nets on all my windows, they just Velcro on. I have two fly door curtains across my French door - all from Aldi, they only cost a few pound a set and last a couple of years. The magnet self closing ones work a treat and even our dog could get in and out. On our back door we bought an USA screen door from Lidl, cost £29 and has been up years, it’s set so it doesn’t affect the handle on our composite door. They sold out very quickly though and we’ve never seen them since.

This year I got some screen repair off eBay as there were @ couple of tiny holes. If I had to replace the screen door I’d happily buy a more expensive one. We are considering buying side roller screen for the French door now we haven’t got a dog.

Great ideas, I’m going to look into these, thanks

I bought a venus fly trap from ikea the other day. Yes to see if it works though!
