Many homeowners with the available outdoor space like to have a swimming pool and deck built on their property, and it’s little wonder why. Swimming is, after all, the fourth most popular sports activity in the United States. However, building an outdoor pool isn’t as simple as creating the pool and having fun once it’s done. There also needs to be protection from one of Earth’s most notorious pests: the mosquito. There are more than 3,000 species of mosquitoes, and they use exhaled carbon dioxide, body odors and temperature, and movement to home in on their victims. These skills make outdoor swimming pools prime targets for the blood-sucking insects, which is why it’s so important to protect these outdoor areas with some form of outdoor mesh screen, like pool screens or a bug screen. This article will be taking a look at several benefits that come from using mosquito screens for decks and swimming pools.
