Vehicle Bug Screen
Tired of Mosquitos, flies and other flying insects bothering you while sitting in your vehicle with the windows down?
Then make a vehicle screen to cover your windows. Great for camping or sitting in your truck at the river or lake at night.

Vehicle Bug Screen
Measure 1 inch from your door handle to the top of your door post. Then measure from your mirror to the side door post. You will then add 2 inches to all four sides because you are going to fold 2 inches on all sides and sew in the magnets.
**it's better to make the screen a little bit large you can always trim some off if it's too large. You can't add to the screen if you make it too small.
If you have a rain guard make sure your measurement is included or your screen may be too small.

Fold over 2 inches on all sides. I used paper clips to hold the screen in place.

Sew in the magnets. You can use a sewing machine or hand stitch it. I hand stitched mine since I didn't have a sewing machine.
I then stitched all the way around the screen.
