Mosquito Netting?

Hello!

I have a Raodtrek Popular 190 and I am looking for a good quality mosquito netting cage to frame in an area when the awning is out.

Does anyone have experience with purchasing a mosquito netting cage that works well? I also really like the magnetic door closures and not the zipper type? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you!

    There's one for TT's and motorhomes called an patio o'room but not sure if they make one to fit a B.

  • Look up Wenzel and Shelter logic canopy's. Then scroll down to their Screen room addition to canopy they offer separately.

    They sell just the screening for their canopies. Some have rigid frames to them others have tiebacks sewn into them.

    Both are easily adapted to covering an RV awning area. The two I mentioned above, after researching and researching have the best ones.
  • Thank you! Thank you! I will check out both of those suggestions! I am planning for my eclipse trip this summer and want to get everything I need before the last minute!
  • Amazon sells all sorts of mosquito netting. Maybe you could buy something like this and modify it with velcro or sew on magnets.

  • I bought 30 feet of 6' wide netting at an army surplus store to do just that. Not quite tall enough to reach the ground. Also had bugs enter from under van since that was wide open. Held screening to awning by small metal spring clips from Home Depot. Wasn't worth the effort, ended up getting small seperate screen room - much better! ST
