hi, anyone have any good ideas on how to make a screen to go over the inside of my bedroom window to stop flies and wasps getting in?
i was thinking of using fine net curtain type material but not sure on how to attach it to window? its about 2 foot x 4 foot!
thanks

Why bother, they are on sale in Lidl from 5th May. £1.99 for a pack of two http://www.lidl.co.uk/uk/home.nsf/pages/c.o.20080505.p.Insect_Screen.ar6
Quick Update
Went today to my local and they have loads for windows and another huge area with the screens for your doors at £2.99.0 -
Oooo I never knew that and was just about to suggest putting some velcro around the opening and sewing/or easy ironing it to some netting and putting that up on the days you will open the windows.
Lidls here I come.0 -
That looks great. I am desparately afraid of anything that buzzes and I have one of those Ikea mozzie nets right above my bed, it goes behind the headboard in the winter and all around the bed in the summer, but those screen things have got to be best as the little blighters can't get in in the first place0

I`ve made them for my back door before now from voile. I once bought one from aldi and it was`nt quite big enough.0
