Hi Mark,

Yes I have a Zip Dee Screen Room and yes they are very
expensive.  However, in my case I did a few favours for a friend
who had two of them.  The one I got was the defect one and
was also missing the poles and bladder and skirt - but I was sure
lucky to get it.

I was able to find suitable poles and bladders and it works
perfectly.  The biggest job was manufacturing a skirt
to go along the bottom of the trailer.  Usually we use it at our
permanent site up here in Ontario Canada where the
mosquitoes are as big as Texas bats (only joking, but there
are a lot of them at times), took it to Mexico - did not need
to use it. It does a great job of keeping out the bugs and
only takes a few minutes to set up. I found slight gaps in
the corners can be temporarily filled with normal mosquito
netting.  I always carry the room with us never knowing when
we will run into lots of mosquitoes, like at the Airstream
park in Minnesota - plus I carry a million other things that
I JUST MIGHT NEED to use.
