Looking after it

Wipe the mesh with a dry cloth once it is switched off and discharged. Keep it dry and do not rinse it under a tap.

For The Ones That Get InPairs with a door screen rather than replacing it

One swing, and the mosquito is gone.

A rechargeable racket for the ones that get past the screen.

A screen keeps most insects out. This is for the few that follow you through the door, and for the mosquito that starts up at eleven at night.

It charges over USB and holds its own battery, so there is nothing to refill and nothing to buy again. You swing it like a small racket and it does the rest.

Buying Guide

6 min read The Screen Door Company

What it is for

A door screen stops most of what tries to get in. It does not stop the mosquito that came in behind you, and it does not help at eleven at night when one has already found you. That is the job this does.

The racket runs off its own lithium battery and charges over USB, so there is nothing to refill and no batteries to keep buying. Insects die on contact with the mesh rather than from anything sprayed into the room, which is why it suits kitchens, bedrooms and anywhere food is out.

Using it safely

This is an electrified device, so it is worth being plain about handling rather than calling it simply safe.

Keep it away from children and store it somewhere they cannot reach. Do not touch the mesh while it is powered. Do not use it in a bathroom, in the rain or anywhere wet, and do not swing it near curtains, aerosols or anything else that catches easily. Switch it off before you put it down.

The supplier does not publish an output rating for this racket, so we do not quote one. If that figure matters for how you plan to use it, ask us before you order and we will get it from them.

What it does not do

It is not a replacement for a screen. A racket deals with insects one at a time, once they are already inside, so it works best alongside a door or window screen rather than instead of one. It also does nothing while you are asleep or out of the room, which is the case for any handheld device.
