Those damn flying insects

I have been removing lots of flying insects from my bedroom for the past few months.
They can be as big as a Dollar coin, or smaller than a sesame seed.

I don't know which way they used to get into my room.
It is either my bedroom window, or the door. I think the window is more likely.


Either way, they annoy me a lot and I have had enough.
I am making a bug screen to block them out.

After school today, I went to a local Home Depot store, and bought the smallest roll of screen they have.
It happened to be 36" x 40".
My bedroom window is 25" x 25", so I had to cut it down in size.
I left some just-in-case-I-mess-up margin, and cut it into a 26"x26" square.


Due to time constraint, I did not make a proper window screen yet.
Instead, I used the cousin of the thing that fixes everything (Duct tape): Green painter's tape.


A few pieces of tape, and the screen is nicely stuck on the window.


I added a few more pieces at the bottom because of the window lock bar bump thing that sticks up.
This will have to hold until I have time to make a proper bug screen.
If not, I will upgrade to Duct tape because it fixes everything.
