Protection From Tiny Insects
The fine 20x20 weave helps block small insects that may pass through standard pool cage or lanai screen.
No-See-Um Screen Installation in Naples, FL
Protect your pool cage, lanai, or patio with 20x20 fiberglass screen designed to help block no-see-ums, sand flies, gnats, and other tiny insects that can pass through standard mesh.
What Is 20x20 No-See-Um Screen?
20x20 fiberglass is a fine mesh screen with a tighter weave than standard 18x14 insect screen. The smaller openings help reduce no-see-ums, biting midges, sand flies, gnats, and other tiny insects commonly found near water, canals, wetlands, and coastal areas of Southwest Florida.
Airflow and Outdoor Comfort
Air can still move through the enclosure, although the tighter weave provides slightly less airflow than standard 18x14 mesh.
Protection From Fine Debris
Smaller mesh openings can also help reduce pine needles and small pieces of windblown debris entering the enclosure.
Are Tiny Bugs Getting Through Your Pool Screen?
If mosquitoes are being stopped but very small bugs continue entering your pool cage or lanai, the openings in standard screen may be too large. Upgrading affected panels to 20x20 no-see-um mesh can provide more effective protection.
Where Should No-See-Um Screen Be Installed?
Fine mesh screen can be installed on pool cages, lanais, patios, porches, screen doors, and other outdoor enclosures. It is especially useful for homes located near canals, lakes, mangroves, wetlands, or other areas with frequent tiny-insect activity.
Pool Cages and Lanais
Replace individual damaged panels or rescreen the enclosure when tiny insects are entering through standard mesh.
Doors and Lower Panels
Use fine mesh around frequently used doors and lower openings where insects may gather and enter the outdoor living space.
20x20 No-See-Um Screen vs. Standard 18x14 Screen
Standard 18x14 fiberglass is suitable for mosquitoes, flies, and general insect protection. A 20x20 screen has smaller openings and is a better choice when no-see-ums, gnats, sand flies, or fine debris are the primary concern.
| Feature | 20x20 No-See-Um Screen | Standard 18x14 Screen |
|---|---|---|
| Tiny Insect Protection | Better protection from no-see-ums, gnats, sand flies, and other small insects. | Designed mainly for mosquitoes, flies, and larger insects. |
| Airflow | Moderate airflow because of the tighter weave. | Higher airflow through larger mesh openings. |
| Visibility | Slightly denser appearance. | More open outward view. |
| Debris Control | Better at reducing pine needles and fine windblown debris. | Suitable for larger leaves and debris. |
| Best Application | Coastal, canal-side, wetland, and high-insect areas. | General pool cage and lanai insect protection. |

We have used other screening companies in the past, but are now lifetime customers of Miguel and his team at Best Rescreen. That name is entirely accurate - they do great work, are extremely polite, very fairly priced, and deliver what they promise...

They did an incredible job installing my front lanai. They were very personal as well. Top notch materials were used also. I would recommend using them for any screening.

Miguel did a wonderful job with our screen! We love the way everything turned out. The screen has no beams and gives us a perfect outside view. We are very happy with our new lanai!
