We have a Velco srip around the inside ledge of our rear doors frame -opening on our 2006 Pleasure Plateau which accepts a corresponding size Velcroized screen--removable when not in use.As for the sliding side door screen: I agree it is a great feature but, if you ever get to Blue River, BC when the mosquitoes are on a rampage, you might as well stay inside--screen or no screen.They will eat you alive in the seconds it takes to get in or out of the vehicle. On Vancouver Island we seem to have few mosquitoes at the numerous RV parks we visit,especially by the ocean ones. We open the window screens provided and the backdoor occasionally and in Arizona, mosquitoes must be 'toast'--havent seen any.I guess we are blessed too much,eh?MY wife is going to make a set of overlapping fine mesh curtains hanging from a narrow curtain rod which she feels will discourage mosquitoes.When it is done I will post the product and report how many bites I get.As a former Winnipeger,the mosquito capital of Canada, I know from experience that my royal blood is preferred by the beasts!!
