Default Mosquito Net, or Whatever to cover the companionway .. question

Last summer, along the coast of Maine, I was anchored in a couple of spots
that had mosquito's the size of turkeys.

I want to be prepared this summer .::: what do you all do about the
companionway to keep out the mosquitos?

I have been thinking of making a couple of companionway sliding screens ..
haven't figured out the method yet.

Any help? Thoughts?


Durned of those buggers ain't smart enough to come in through any cracks you
might leave between the screen and the frame. So I am thinking that using
Velcro would be the best bet -- but probably annoying to constantly open and
close.
