Screen Mesh around Pool Decks

[NigelM]

I have always wanted to know why each private villa (well most of them) have the mesh whilst hotel swimming pools do not. Do the bugs not go near the hotels?

Most hotels are professisonally sprayed all around the grounds for bugs as their pools are normally within a large grounds area whereas private home aren't, although homes do have professional regular bug treatment inside.

Residential swimming pool regulations also stipulate that private home pools must have a four foot high barrier around them and the net bug screens do a perfect job for that also. [msnwink]

Having the screen around the pool extends your living area giving you an outside space in the evenings and early mornings when bugs are more likely to be around. You are less likely to use a hotel pool at this time of day.

My parents came out to Florida for the first time this year and thought it was wonderful to be able to sit outside without the bugs bothering them, especially in the evenings where we would linger with a glass or two of wine after a BBQ dinner by the pool[msnsmile2]

I agree - it was lovely to be able to sit out with a beer or glass of wine, reading a book by the lanai overhead light without worrying about bugs. It made a lovely relaxing end to the day.

Thats the beauty of a villa too, hotel pools normally close in the evenings and you cant have a midnight swim or relax with a glass of wine in the jacuzzi....heaven[msnsmile2]
