Da quando sono venuto in Germania, la situazione degli insetti è stata pazza. In inverno era ancora tollerabile, ma ora che il tempo è più caldo non riesco nemmeno a tenere le finestre aperte di notte per 10 minuti senza avere un po ‘di ragni, mosche e zanzare.
Ho provato a usare uno schermo di Windows come quello nella foto, ma non dura molto a lungo e il nastro inizia a sbucciarsi dopo un paio di giorni, per non parlare del fatto che gli insetti erano ancora in grado di entrare quando non c’erano buchi da strisciare.
L’ho installato da DM 3 volte ormai, ed è sempre lo stesso. Ho anche avuto aiuto la seconda e la terza volta nel caso in cui stavo sbagliando.
Quindi qualcuno sa come tenere fuori i bug? Forse con uno spray? O sto solo usando un brutto marchio per lo schermo di Windows?

You need to very thoroughly clean the window frames with a solvent, like alcohol or isopropyl, to make sure ist absolutely clean and fat free.
Then you applied the hooking tape.
Then you wait 6 hours for the hooking tape to adhere properly.
Then you apply the screen.
Trust me, it makes a huge difference
Those by are on the cheap end, I’d advise for tesa
I think most people actually have professionally installed bug nets
1. Did you clean the part where you will put the tape/adhesive with soap, water and a good dry up?
On clean surfaces the adhesive should stick as-hell.
Otherwise you could try to get some living kitchen herbs in pots which have a strong smell like Rosemary or Basilikum and put them on the board under your window…
But the net stays the best counter to insectual invasion. Try to get one which has the velcro to mount on to the window frame, that is the one with the good adhesive, but it has to be squeaky clean inb4!
These things are simply rubbish. If they sit properly for more than a year, you’re in luck.
I assume you are renting? Then I would contact the landlord and ask if he can have professional insect screens fitted. For example from [Neher](https://www.neher.de/fliegengitter/fliegengitter-mit-rahmen/). These are individually measured and manufactured for your window by a carpenter or other specialist. Yes, they cost quite a bit more than those DIY shit, but they also last a lifetime, so to speak. We have been using them ourselves for more then 10 years and they still look like new and you’ve never had to do anything to it.
As you are (presumably) renting, this “lifelong pleasure” will probably not be of much use to you. The landlord, on the other hand, will think to himself why he should put such a thing on your window for a few hundred euros. I would therefore clarify with the landlord whether you can contribute to the costs on a pro rata basis (e.g. 80€ / 20%…what ever). You would then have a really great solution for your rental period and the landlord would even have added value for his property if you move out.
My advice:
Clean the surfaces properly with isopropyl alcohol, lighter fluid (gasoline) or at least universal cleaner before application.
Buy TESA. They are expensive (I think ~20€), but work wonderfully and hold up for years.
Take your time, and make sure to properly put on the glue velcro stuff in one go from one side to the other without any gaps, as well as press it down evenly.
After installment, keep the window completely shut for 12-24h to ensure the glue is really pressed onto the window and sticks.
