    It is truly bizarre how Europeans never use screens, make it make sense!!

      We had them in Italy. But we also didn’t have these weird windows. Also stop acting like Europe is a small town on an island.

        I honestly don’t think of Europe as a small town I promise, I’m just saying I’ve been in many countries and I’ve never seen a screen :)

      Its not like the few mosquitoes we have would be smart enough to enter my room through the sides of a lightly tilted window.

    There are no mosquitoes in the UK. And moths are rare. Would be lucky to see a fly.

      There are definitely mosquitos in the UK. They piss me off every summer.

        Well, compared to my home country mosquitos in the UK don’t really exist…

  There are screens for tilt windows.

    Yeah, but most places in Europe don’t have screens regardless.

      True that!

  American with these windows. I have screens. I also don’t like them very much.
