I'm gonna need to get two....the skeeters around here can be annoying..... And a PIA! The heat isn't bad...I've lived my whole life here and I ride a motorcycle daily (feels like your in a blowdryer windtunnel).

how did it keep the mosquitoes out with the big white holes in it?

got more details on it? how did it do with ventilation? i usually have a fan outside the garage blowing in, would the net effect that? i enjoy working in the garage at night but get tired of beetles and moths. not so much skeeters. the occasional giant dragonfly tho!

Well I guess since it my fault Brent got the net I could help answer some questions . I got my first one 5 years ago from Harbor freight ( standard 16X7 double door ) worked great kept 99% of the critters out of the garage . I keep mine up year round and just roll it up and wire tie it in the winter . I broke down and got a new one this summer as the old one was showing its age . I figure 5 years for an original $15.00-$20.00 purchase was pretty good . I live in my garage ( if I am home and not in bed I am out here actually out here now watching the OCC boys and surfing the journal ). You can also find them via google by typing in garage door screen and there money wise the sky's the limit :D. I paid around $30.00 for the new one this year.

I got mine from http://garagedoorscreens.com/
Good screens but the velcro they supply didn't stick to my door frame that well... all the corners are peeling. I cleaned w/ rubbing alcohol first too. Happy overall though to be able to work w/ the doors open at night and not have 20000 bugs fly in.

The velcro doesnt stick . I simply took the staple gun and stapled the tabs in place and they have worked fine since . I actually still have the original velcro tabs from the original screen on my door frame.
