How do I choose best flyscreen mesh?

Planning to replace all fly screens- windows and doors. I have 2 pomeranians so I think pet mesh best for front/back doors. How do I work out best choice for window screens? I can see that there are varying types of mesh and prices, but am I comparing apples with apples? I have zero idea re stopping midges, longevity ... would appreciate any advice.  Thx

Hi @mejaybee,

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and apologies for the slow reply. Usually the ever-helpful @MitchellMc would be on hand to assist you but he is taking a well-earned break at the moment and won't be back until the end of the week. Thanks for your patience in the meantime.  

 

I would encourage you to start with this helpful step-by-step guide: How to replace a flyscreen by @Tara86 

 

There is also helpful information at this Bunnings resource - How to choose and repair a flyscreen

 

Can you please confirm that your goal for the project is just to keep insects out - it is not for security?
