Hygiene tip for now and after TSHTF

[NorthernRaider]

On another forum a chap from South Africa who spent 2 years studying in the UK expressed surprise that even in summer and mainly down south where biting and disease carrying insects can cause problems that so few people appear to have fly / bug screens on their doors even after decades of warnings about climate change bringing ever increased risks from semi and tropical diseases reaching the UK and being spread by insects, He mentions Malaria and Zeka but there are literally DOZENs of diseases and bacteria out there that could and probably would cause chaos if the normal public health and sanitation systems stopped working during a crisis, including unburied dead as seen laying around New Orleans for weeks after H Katrina, or just huge piles of uncollected and unburnt / buried domestic waste as seen during industrial action. Out of habit he said even when he was in Bournemouth he still used his mosquito net over his bed last summer and he never suffered mossy bites like others in his campus.

That got me thinking that WE should be using fly screens on our doors even now so as to get into the the habit and being comfortable having them around as they certainly cannot do any harm and they would certainly be essential in the summers during a crisis.
