I am looking for flyscreens to put on the outside of my flat to keep all the winged beasts out during the summer months. I think i need something similar to those mesh panels you get in Mediterrean countries or America, but because my windows are a non-standard size, open inwards and have a sloped sill, I'm not sure how to go about fitting them.

would i need a carpenter to make and instal them? Can you buy them?

PS- I'm only interested in screens that cover the entire window as I am so phobic about wasps coming in that nothing else is secure enough to stop me freaking out!
Thanks!

Good point!

My windows are 53" by 29" and can be accessed from outside as I have a patio. They are timber frames and I rent so probably can't make any holes in the frames.

Thanks!
this is not a very good solution but it would work . Go down to your nearest garden center and and get some net green house shading pin this to winder with a few BRASS drawing pins. or go to BOYS SHOP thay all ways have some sort of net that you can bye by the yard.
ps have a look at the link on the right FLY SCREENS ----->
this might help to give you some idears
Here's another possible solution spider screens.

These screens appear to be fitted on inside of the windows though.
