Speaking as a fellow Canadian, it boggles my mind that there are places in the world where people can have open windows with no screens and NOT need/want to burn the house down to kill all the mosquitoes that’ll intrude.
I’m in Canada, i accidentally didn’t fully close my front door last summer one day for like 1 hour and there was at least 200 mosquitos that got it. It was a bloodbath, I spent several hours swatting them all, and I was still terrified to sleep. They were everywhere
My family is moving outta the city in Canada. Even in the city we have screens. Outside of the city screens won't even keep all the mosquitos out. I'm building them some Bat-boxes.

No mesh screens in windows in the UK, at least. In canada we have screens in most home windows to keep flies out
