Insect screens in spring and summer

Why now is the right time

As temperatures rise, the peak season for mosquitoes, flies and numerous other insects begins. Climate change towards warmer temperatures is encouraging their populations to grow, which also increases the burden on us humans in our everyday lives: open windows, balcony and patio doors become entry points for all kinds of unwanted guests. In addition to night-time disturbances, health problems caused by tiger mosquitoes or pollen allergies, among other things, can also impair our quality of life. A custom-made fly screen on your window provides a remedy and ensures that you can enjoy the warm season to the fullest.

Fly screens on windows: the perfect solution for every home

An open window is a must in summer, but unfortunately it also invites flies, mosquitoes and wasps. This makes it all the more important to have suitable insect screens that reliably protect indoor spaces from crawling intruders without obstructing the view. The best choice for this are custom-made insect screens that blend inconspicuously into the window design. They can be installed without drilling, making them ideal for rented flats or listed buildings.

Whether you choose a classic tension frame, a practical rotating frame or a convenient roller blind, each option has its own advantages. The tension frame is particularly easy to attach and remove, for example when cleaning windows. This means you can enjoy the same level of comfort in your home – without having to compromise.

If you frequently open your windows, you will benefit from pivot or swing windows, which are easy to operate and therefore ideal for kitchens or children's rooms.

Balcony and patio doors are often left open for hours in summer. Professional insect screens for doors are therefore essential. Swing doors with insect screens are particularly popular here, as they can be opened in both directions and close automatically. They allow you to pass through easily – even with your hands full – and are extremely robust.

If you want to save space, choose sliding elements. These are ideal for large door openings or conservatories. If required, multi-leaf systems can even be installed. Everything is made to measure, of course – for reliable protection and a clear view of the outside world.

Double protection: Insect screens with pollen protection function

It's not just insects that can be a nuisance in living spaces – pollen also makes life difficult for many people. Especially in the months from March to July, the pollen season causes irritated eyes, sneezing fits and disturbed sleep for allergy sufferers. These symptoms can be significantly reduced with special protection against pollen allergies.

Pollen screens reliably keep out even the finest particles such as grass and birch pollen. At the same time, they are permeable to air and light and offer the same protection against mosquitoes and flies as conventional fly screens. So you kill two birds with one stone – in the truest sense of the word.

By the way: Even newly introduced species such as tiger mosquitoes can be effectively kept out by the fine mesh fabric – an added health benefit for the whole family.
