fly/mosquito nets

[mandy]

Does anyone know where we can get something to go over our vw sliding windows to stop insects getting in????

I made some once. Bought some fly screen material and bonded it to some magnetic strip, the type you used to get with secondary double glazing kits. Worked a treat!

Hi Roi, re. the midges

How about a wind turbine then to charge up your batteries and when the midges come out send the current back up to the turbine to create a stiff breeze around your van. I'm told they dont like breezy weather.

Worst midges I ever encountered were in Grassington in the Yorkshire Dales. The ablution block sinks at the site I was staying were literally black with roosting midges in the morning.

The guy in the only shower pi**ed me off for taking forever, so you can probably guess what happened next. :blink:

Hope he had his skin so soft in the right places !!
