Self closing door

Has anyone come across a modification for a self closing entry door? I have six children and not a single one closes the door after themselves. I'd like to try to avoid contracting malaria from the mosquito infiltration into the TT.

I cant find any hardware at the box stores that would help. (self closing hinges, screen door closer, springs, etc.)

Thanks.

    they make a RV one, long spring, mounts vertically on jamb, hooks to a bracket on the screen door as I remember. I unhooked mine, didn't like it slamming the door all the time.
    bumpy
