Home and Garden Repairs

Australia is known for its bug population, and while foreigners believe that there are life-threatening critters everywhere, locals know that they are more of a distraction than a risk. Most unwanted visitors can be kept at bay with "bug bombs" or other pest control solutions in the home, but you may sometimes need to take extra precautions, especially when the cooler weather arrives. If you want to throw your windows open and enjoy a cool breeze as you relax after work, then you will need to install some special screens over the windows to keep your home secure. What type of product should you consider?

Complete Seal

Mosquitoes and flies can be a real pain at certain times of day and when they are in season. Given your luck, they may decide to share your living space at the most inappropriate moment and those bites can be a nuisance to deal with. If you're going to ensure total protection, then you need to get uPVC flyscreens that are built within their own framework. Certainly, it's possible to get some ready-made and lower-priced products that use "hook and loop" attachments, but do they provide an adequate seal all around the perimeter? The entry-level models may certainly help to keep the climbing spider or scorpion from invading your home, but unless it presents a perfect seal all around, it's not going to be much good for smaller flying insects.

Matching Decor

You will also want to look at the choice available on the market to see what solution fits in best with your decor. Some organisations can offer to fit these professionally for you and when they do so, they will definitely take into account the finished aesthetic. When you buy this type of product you will also get something that is really durable and of high quality, so it can be expected to last throughout the season. After all, you may be opening and closing these screens each night and don't want to snag them against any sharp object as you are doing so.

Fully Discreet

The best flyscreens are discrete and can be retracted so that they are out of sight when not in use. It's best if you choose products that are designed to fit in with the prevailing colour scheme of your window frame so they will be even less noticeable when they are open.

Peace at Last

Remember, you don't want any unwanted visitors in your home, no matter how small they may be. Take some time to choose the best flyscreen product on the market for full security.
