Product Information
Full details
This vidaXL magnetic insect screen is ideal for homeowners seeking to keep flying insects like flies, wasps, bees, and mosquitoes out of their homes while maintaining airflow. Its key benefit is the easy, drill-free installation and effective pest deterrence. A potential caveat is that its size is fixed at 80x120 cm, so it may require cutting for smaller windows. The screen features durable, UV-resistant fibreglass mesh and a magnetic mounting system for secure, tool-free attachment.

Troubleshooting
Screen not adhering properly
Ensure the window frame is thoroughly cleaned and dry before applying the magnetic strip. Check if the frame surface is smooth and flat. Reapply the magnetic strip, pressing firmly.
Insects still getting through
Verify that there are no gaps or tears in the mesh. Ensure the screen is properly sealed around the edges and that the magnetic strip is fully attached.
Mesh is torn or damaged
Carefully cut away the damaged section if minor, or consider replacing the entire screen if the damage is extensive. For small tears, a mesh repair patch might be a temporary solution.
Difficulty cutting the mesh to size
Use sharp scissors or a utility knife for a clean cut. Cut on a flat surface and apply steady pressure. Ensure you have measured accurately before cutting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Clean the Window Frame: Ensure the window frame is clean, dry, and free from dust or debris for optimal adhesion.
- Measure and Cut (if needed): If the screen is larger than your window, carefully measure and cut the fibreglass mesh to the desired size using scissors or a utility knife.
- Attach Magnetic Strip: Apply the adhesive magnetic strip to the inside edge of the window frame, ensuring it is firmly pressed down.
- Position the Screen: Align the magnetic edges of the insect screen with the magnetic strip on the frame. The screen should snap into place.
- Secure: Gently press around the edges to ensure a secure fit.
Compatibility:

Care:
- Cleaning the Mesh: Wipe the mesh gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Frame: Clean the window frame and magnetic strip with a mild detergent and water.
- Storage: If removed, store the screen flat or rolled loosely in a dry place to prevent damage.
