Ooooh, tough question. There are several types of insect screens available in the market, each with its own advantages and considerations. The "best" insect screen will depend on your specific needs and preferences. Here are some commonly used types of insect screens:
Fiberglass Screens: These screens are affordable, durable, and provide good visibility. They are resistant to rust and corrosion but can be prone to damage from pets or rough handling.
Aluminum Screens: Aluminum screens are known for their strength and durability. They are resistant to rust and can withstand harsh weather conditions. However, they may dent easily and are less transparent compared to fibreglass screens.
Stainless Steel Screens: Stainless steel screens offer excellent durability and resistance to corrosion. They are highly durable and provide good visibility. They are particularly useful in areas where there are high levels of wear and tear or for enhanced security.
Pet-Resistant Screens: If you have pets, you might consider pet-resistant screens. These screens are typically made of vinyl-coated polyester and are designed to resist damage from claws and paws.
Retractable Screens: Retractable screens are versatile and can be pulled down when needed and retracted when not in use. They provide a clear view when retracted and can be a good option for doors or larger openings.
When choosing the best insect screen, consider factors such as your budget, the level of durability required, visibility, resistance to damage, and specific features that may be important to you, such as UV protection or privacy.

The terms "fly screen" and "insect screen" are often used interchangeably to refer to screens installed on windows or doors to keep out insects… but they’re not necessarily the same. While there is no strict technical difference between the two, you may find the size of your mesh screen changes between a fly screen and an insect screen.
In general, both fly screens and insect screens serve the same purpose of preventing insects from entering a space while allowing air circulation. They are typically made of mesh materials with small gaps that block insects but allow air to flow through.
So don’t worry if you’re comparing fly screens, there’s a good chance they’ll keep out all types of insects too!

“Coverings Noosaville have taken their business to a new level. Its a fantastic experience to visit their showroom. Most Coverings Showrooms look like they have come from the mid century and are typically bleak and unimaginative. The products displayed are very appealing. Systems are app driven and sleek. Messaging and a smooth process is top class. Rate the team very highly“
