Ben needs help with his bug problem

[silent ben]

Well its warm (this means its summer for me) and because i am in a small room, with only 1 external wall, its very warm in here (especially with a TV and PC on). So I open the window.

All of a sudden its like one of the challenges from "i'm a celebrity, get me out of here" (the 1 where they put their head into a big plastic dome and they put bugs into the dome with them). I HATE bugs.

So, does anyone know where i can buy some fine mesh which i can fit over my windows allowing air to circulate, while keeping my room fly/moth/bee/anyother disgusting bug free?

Try a camping shop. They use a fine mesh in modern tents, so you can have the door open, but still stop all the bugs. I'm sure they'd sell it separatly.

Man, moths the size of a mobile phone are the worst. Them hairy buggers freak me out everytime.

This little bugger met his match when he tried to get through the running blades of my 120mm fan

Thats pretty Grim that!! Is that a moth? Looks like it's been on steroids!!

[Kitty]

what kinda bug is that monkeyville?
you dont get big ugly ones like that round these parts (leicester/nottingham)

[monkeyville]

I have no idea what kind of bug it is. Think it was attracted to the UV lights in the case. Was photographed when i was in Nottingham so i guess you do get nasty looking things

Try a mosquito net from a camping shop. Should be less than a tenner.

[Kitty]

ah right iv never seen any big ones like that in notts :S hope i dont either they look evil

[Moonshade]

Monkeyville, that was a nice pic

[Moby-Dick]

try a citroenella candle too - they should help

[monkeyville]

Actually i had a lot of problems with them bloody things because thet kept getting sucked into my CPU cooler and clogging it up which was causing my pc to crash. Had to rebuild the bloody thing about 3 times.

Eventually i bought some of that fine mesh stuff from a local army store and put it up round my windows which is also my suggestion for Ben

Get some of the fine netting that is on an aquarium fish net, most aquatic shops should stock it for different things like covering an undergravel filter (Cichlids dig down to the filter so it stops gaps in the filtration but is fine enough to catch and gunk)
