Title: Fly screen
Post by: honeybun on April 20, 2015, 03:19:48 PM

My old one has been consigned to the bin as it was falling to bits.

I don't want to spend a fortune but I need something to keep the flys out the kitchen but that the dog can get through so the magnetic ones are no good.

Anyone got any recommendations as I like to have door open but don't want flys everywhere.

What about one of those bead curtains you used to see? Some are quite jazzy!

I was going to suggest the plastic ribbon strips, maybe buy one at your 'sea-side' shops?  Or try some macrame  ;)

we used to have awful trouble with flies i hate them in the house, then last summer we left a fan on and they just didnt seek to like it, strange but works for us
