thebishbus Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Hi. We have a fly screen built into our door, but find it a nuisance to keep opening and closing it when going in and out. We now use one of those lambs tail hanging screen things, find it much more convenient. Brian B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGD Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 We also use the hanging "lambstails" fly/mozzie screen in our motorhome doorway. Simple to self-fit, can be cut to exact length ( don't forget to seal the cut ends with a ciggie lighter or equivalent) and can quickly be removed for storage in autumn. And only costs a few quid.

Derek Uzzell Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Remis produces the RemiCare flyscreen product, but it's not cheap and may be impracticable to fit to some motorhomes' doorways: http://www.leisureshopdirect.com/caravan/caravan_accessories/product_48814/remicare_ii_door_flyscreen_2000_x_650_x_58mm.aspx GOOGLE-ing on "caravan door flyscreen" will retrieve other (cheaper) options. GOOGLE-ing on "caravan door lambs tails" indicates that Dave Newell can supply. http://www.davenewell.co.uk/mailorder.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retread24800 Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Just clicked on the remiscreen link and thought I had teleported to planet Sillyprice. We visited our local home improvement shed where door fly-screens were on sale from 10Euro both the Fluffy type and the clear or coloured rattly strip , just cut to size.

gwyn Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 We have a van conversion, I bought some black net curtain type material, sewed weighted tape at the bottom, curtain tape at the top and velcro on the sides. Then put curtain track in van across the top and made use of the fuzzy material sides in side the van for the velcro to stick to, works a treat and cost me about £25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawki Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 Thanks for your help guys I do like the look of the Remicare one, but might have punt at at a cheaper one first and see how we get on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dikyenfo Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Have found the best overall for looks and effectiveness is net curtain and can be washed or replaced easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the Golf (a good walk ruined) simile for the price you could buy a complete golf set including a posh bag AND the Cheap y fly-screen for the same price :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
