Which insect screen to choose for a window? Here are 3 models
Every year, many people look forward to summer, and perhaps you’re one of them. Evenings with friends, sunbathing on the beach, swimming in the pool… so many opportunities to create happy memories.
However, there are some who have decided not to let us enjoy these moments of happiness and have chosen instead to ruin the atmosphere, and even our sleep. We call them: mosquitoes.
Fortunately, there’s a tried-and-tested solution: insect screens. It’s the ideal, non-toxic choice for a good night’s sleep. But… which insect screen should you choose for your windows? We’ll help you choose!
Why choose a Neher insect screen for your windows?
Neher mosquito nets are renowned for their robustness, durability and effective insect protection.
Ideal for protecting your home, they feature a sturdy frame and fine-mesh fabrics that offer unrivalled protection against all kinds of undesirables: mosquitoes, wasps, bees, moths, flies… And all without blocking air and light circulation.
Unlike simple self-adhesive nets, our insect screens are designed with durable aluminum frames, combined with functional fabrics.
Neher insect screens are available in several types:
- custom-made insect screens , for precise adaptation to your window dimensions;
- open, rolled-up or removable pest protection, depending on your needs.

What are the different types of insect protection for windows?
All models are installed by screwing the screens to your doors, windows or facade. Of course, with the exception of removable frames, which are held in place with practical hanging hooks.
Framed insect screens
Are you looking for simplicity and efficiency, while still being able to easily remove your insect screen from its support? Then choose a framed model!
Whether for wooden, plastic or aluminum windows, framed insect screens fit all models. Stainless steel brackets mean no drilling required. In fact, you can remove and replace the insect screens at will!
What’s more, the sleek design blends harmoniously into the window, providing effective protection against insects. The view remains unobstructed, even for large windows.
Finally, the peripheral brushes between the window and the screen ensure an excellent insect-proof seal.
Over 100 different installation variants.
No additional stiffener required up to 190 cm, or even more in some cases.
An undeniable advantage of this solution lies in its simplicity, since installation is carried out without drilling or screwing. This, of course, is reflected in the price.
Roller Insect screens
In addition to removable frames, you can also opt for a roll-up blind. This type of screen opens and closes at your convenience: you can open it if you need to pass objects through, for example, then close it as soon as you’re done.
These anti-insect protectors feature a fabric that retracts discreetly into its housing.
For greater ease of use, a one-hand control handle and brake are integrated.
The screen also features a removable service panel, which can be used for a few installation adjustments, as well as brushed side guides to prevent the fabric from coming loose in windy conditions.
Beware of excessively strong draughts; in extreme situations, the fabric can be pulled out of its guides.
Skylight covers
Tired of dirt and insects falling into your skylights? Opt for skylight screens that keep insects and dirt away from your home.
These sturdy, elegant, non-slip solutions are made to measure with millimetric precision. In fact, they can be adapted to all skylight models.
Covers can be rectangular or slightly oblique.
They are suitable for skylights in cellars, terraces, house entrances, inspection hatches and much more.
Which insect screen should I choose for my roof window?
For roof windows, choosing the right screen is a little simpler. However, it’s not enough to know the reference number of the window. Because roof windows can open outwards, an insect screen on the outside is not possible…
The solution? Install insect protection inside, either in the niche or in front of it. Roll-up insect screens are the best choice for this type of situation.
In particular, are you looking for a solution that offers effective protection from prying eyes and the sun, as well as unfailing defense against mosquitoes and insects?
Choose “two-in-one” insect screens! These screens combine two cassette blinds using side guide rails. The upper cassette contains a blackout fabric, while the lower cassette is fitted with a insect screen.
Both components feature continuously adjustable finishing profiles. This allows both fabrics to be positioned over the entire window surface, or in specific areas for each fabric. The two profiles are joined by integrated magnetic strips. They can be effortlessly separated if required.
Be careful on sunny days. Fully raise or lower the blackout fabric to prevent uneven heating of the glass from causing stress cracks.
