Benefits

In the Caribbean, we have developed a higher than usual threshold for insects invading our homes as we believe that this is the way it always has been and will continue to be. However, in modern homes, the insect screen is a fundamental element that is incorporated into the design. In older homes as well, in countries such as the United States, Canada and Australia, insect screens are a standard feature. This basic attribute should also be part of any Caribbean home where we have the advantage of year round sunshine and breeze.

Benefits

Keep Out Insects

The obvious benefit is keeping out insects such as flies and mosquitoes. Apart from these being a nuisance, they carry diseases which can be quite severe, and even if symptoms are mild, often require a costly trip to the doctor.

Cut Air Conditioning Cost

The cost of running and maintaining ACs can be high, and there is really no need to lock yourself inside when we have such wonderful weather in the Caribbean. Instead, Mosco Insect Screens should be used to encourage the natural flow of air to help keep the entire home cool.

Encourage Natural Light

Mosco Insect Screens are near transparent and certainly let in the natural light. This again allows you to cut costs by reducing your electricity bill, and also adds to the appeal of your home or office.

Affordability

Mosco Insect Screens will last for years and are thus a small cost worth considering. When the yearly costs incurred for non-necessities is considered, such as yet more clothes or another weekend lime, it will soon be realized that Mosco Insect Screens are a necessity that is very economical.

Easy to Maintain and Clean

Mosco Insect Screens are made from lightweight materials that are easy to clean and maintain. The screens can be installed so that they are removable for cleaning, such as brushing, or washing off with water.

Neat and Attractive

Mosco Insect Screens won’t dent as these are made of Fiberglass which will maintain its shape. The screens are also very neat and professional so they maintain your home’s aesthetics more so than most Do-It-Yourself options.

Allow in fresh air

Mosco Insect Screens do not stop the flow of air. This means that clean air is circulated in the home instead of stale air (which encourages the growth of bacteria). Pollutants in musty air can have ill effects on health so Mosco Insect Screens should be used to let in fresh air.

Prevent Birds

Mosco Insect Screens are strong enough to prevent birds so outdoor areas can be screened to keep these areas clean and attractive.

Reduce Dust and Debris

Mosco Insect Screens can also prevent some dust as the mesh is fine enough to trap a portion of dust. Other debris, such as leaves, can also be blocked from entering any area.

Keep the View

Insect screens can be almost invisible depending on the lighting in the area in which they are installed so there is no risk of losing your view. Apart from that, a closed door completely bounds you in, while insect screens retain an element of openness.

Protect Children

Our little ones require constant supervision and usually end up in places where they shouldn’t be. Mosco Insect Screens can be used to block off more than doors and windows, as entire open areas can be screened, which help to keep the kids confined.

Maintain your Style

There are a number of options for screens and frames so there is no need to sacrifice style for practicality.
