TRIXES Dew Drop Gold String Curtain Panel - 90 x 200 cm - Waterfall Effect - Glitter Thread Partition Divider - Home Decor Accessory - Perfect as a Fly Screen for Doors Doorways and Windows

Reminds me of the old plastic strips, sparkly soft strands, nice feature

I do really love this curtain. It looks so pretty at my back door, especially when the afternoon sun catches it and the silver thread running through it sparkles. The strands do seem very flimsy and they seem to make tubes of themselves, leaving biggish gaps between, but they don't tangle (first day up has been a very windy day). As for its purpose, well it's early days. I wanted something that would stop those horrible buzzy flies coming in, they make a beeline for my cat's dish and it's just disgusting! So I only put this curtain up today, and just one big buzzy fly came in. Normally they seem to follow one after the other like a relay race, or maybe it's the same one that keeps coming back lol. Anyway, an early impression is that although the curtain won't totally solve the problem, it makes a big difference despite the tubing/gaps. To be honest though, even if it didn't stop one single fly I would still keep it and use it on an internal doorway as it is so pretty. I may get another one and do just that!Update: I bought a second one to double-up on the back door, and now it is twice as sparkly and not a single fly has come in since putting it up three days ago.

Ideal to screen out the summer flies and wasps.

In the past, we've used various types of mesh screens to try and keep the bugs out, with varying levels of success.Most of them worked reasonably okay for a while, but always seemed to end up getting twisted or damaged, or falling off, thereby rendering it useless.So this year, we've tried one of these. And so far, we're very pleased with it. We wanted something like this primarily to stop insects coming into the house through our back door when it's open and this seems to be up to that task. In addition, it actually looks really nice, too, which is not something that could be said about the mesh screens we've used in the past.It was also the perfect size for our door, which I'm guessing is a standard sized UK door.Well worth the price. Quick delivery and it even came with some fitting pins. We needed a few more to fix it how we wanted, but still a nice surprise to get any at all, especially at this low cost.Oh and another bonus - this doesn't confuse the dog! With the mesh screens, he just sat there looking at it, having no clue it would just move aside if he walked through, but he seems quite happy to stroll in and out with this in place, so everyone is happy.

Disappointed with Two we bought, the strings are very fine and end up as pictured, often worse. So flies just whizz in through the gaps.We’re going for heavier beads.

I wanted this for my back door, I previously had beads, they were strong and well weighted but were 2 foot short and because they were so rigid the gap was too wide between them and the wind hardly moved them that the flies just flew in, whereas, these maybe a little light but they are perfect, they are very long and the width is very good, they do separate quite a bit and stick together but when the wind blows they move and this also stops insects from coming in, a great price for a great product, good looking as well, I am just about to order another one and maybe I will combine 2 together, not sure how long they will last but overall I am impressed.

Bought a set of two last year and was very pleased with the white and sparkle effect and the quality. Decided this year to add two more sets adding more ruching to distract the flies across the double patio doors. Arrived quickly BUT the new sets are a shorter total length. Instead of a header of the stated 10cm it’s no more than 7-7.5cm, they hang 3-5cm shorter when side by side my original sets which were fully 200cm, and we’re ideal hanging below the doorstep lip, the new ones now blow ABOVE the doorstep allowing the flies in! VERY disappointed. If I want them to match I will have to cut the long ones to match and make the whole purpose of keeping flies out a bit of a pointless effort! These were not an offer price, but because they were previously so good, I was happy to pay that bit more. Feel a bit short changed this year to be honest, I know it says approx, but I didn’t expect sets to be so different! So dropped 2 stars this year!

I wasn’t sure this item would be any good due to some previous reviews .. but I love this item! Normally I get a lot of flys soon as I open my back door however the last few days I haven’t had any! Yes there are spaces between each bit of string and yes they can gather together a little but just running your fingers through them seperates them easily. Flies don’t come in through the gaps either. The glitter and colour match with my kitchen too so when the door is open it matches and looks lovely. It also gives an element of privacy from overlooking neighbours. The curtain was also the perfect length and width for my backdoor so I didn’t need to cut it. I simply used net wire with hooks into my door frame. Took minutes to put up. Also easy for my dog to still get in and out. Very happy with my purchase!
