Mike, try a house window and door manufacturer for these =
weatherstrips.
I guess there are no mosquitoes in Germany because the =
screens don't
come with any kind of weatherstripping. In the area of Canada where I =
live,
mosquitoes are in abundance (practically the provincial bird!) during =
the summer
so I needed to install a length of weatherstrip vertically on each =
screen to
prevent the critters from getting into my Westfalia. I found exactly the =
same
weatherstripping which is on the windows. It's actually weatherstripping =
for
sliding glass patio doors. It works perfectly!
P.S. I also had to plug up gaps surrounding the screening in the =
roof
skylight to keep the little blood thirsty critters out as well.
