Amazing tips to bring your window screens back to life




As the temperatures rise this season, your family is sure to be opening windows for cool evening breeze, leaving your window screens as the only line of defense between your home and the insect pests trying to make their way inside. Find some amazing tips to bring your windows back to life.


Take some time now to review the screens throughout your home, inspect for holes, tears and loose-fitting frames that will give pests access to your home.


 A well maintained window screen can prevent damage-inducing dirt and grime from building up, saving you money from repairs.


An average fiberglass screen lasts anywhere from 3-7 years, depending on the sun exposure.


If you have trouble removing the screens, call a professional for help! Don’t force trying to remove them, since they bend very easily.


If the screens are full of dust or debris and wind starts to blow in, that dust or debris will just linger around your house which could be harmful for everyone. Dirty window screens are also linked to cases of sinus irritation and trigger asthma attacks for some folks. It would be a great idea to clean your window screens. A little of soap and warm water and a soft bristled brush works wonders to help clean your window screens.


You can bring your aluminum screens back to life.

Another great way to naturally clean your window screens and eliminate germs and bacteria is to spray it with distilled white vinegar that you can get at any grocery store. Pour the vinegar in an empty spray bottle, then blend an equal amount of water and spray liberally to the screen. Use a soft bristle brush and scrub vigorously and rinse off.


Remember – if your screens look streaky white and silver instead of uniform black color, not only are they less effective in dust and pollen control, they are also very weak and can easily have a hole punched through. In this case, professional replacement may be necessary.
