I have a brand new build with a roughly 20x20 screen porch. For those of you with porches, a few questions.

How do you clean the screens?

I am still getting a few mosquitoes and tree leaves. Is yours completely sealed or is this a normal occurrence?

Thanks in advance!

If it is a deck porch, they're probably coming through the gaps in the boards.

I hose mine off twice during spring pollen season.

I stapled screen onto the bottom of the floor joists below the porch to keep the skeeters out and I also have a good metal framed screen door after years of struggling with wooden framed doors. You can also put a door sweep on the bottom of the door.
