Window screening has been sold in the United States since 1861 when an employee of Gilbert and Bennett Manufacturing figured out that the wire cloth used to make sieves for food processing could also serve as window screening.
My Sweetie and I erected our screen house yesterday so that we can sit outside without being a feast for mosquitos.
But there are still those hours that one spends in the great outdoors, in my case, gardening. About two days ago I must have encounter some spiders when I was weeding and deadheading. I have three angry bites to show for it.
I think I will be wearing long pants as screening when I garden.
