Just starting to get the van ready for the 12 April and spotted a fly screen with lots of small brown dots on it. Whats the best method to remove them. Have tried just warm water and no luck. Any body cured this in the past ?.

    There’s no magic to this. Spray them with a household cleaner of your choice and scrub gently. Been doing that since fly screens in caravans were first invented.

    You could try some washing up liquid on a cloth. If you have a sponge scourer use the sponge face against the netting and rub the cloth from the other side. Washing up liquid is fairly harmless but always best to try a small area first.

    We've had this.  Cure as above (we used a soft brush) and we found it easier to use the flat back of a dust pan to give something to rub against.  Takes time but works.
