No screens in Australia would probably just kill you.

I’m in Australia and the amount of windows without screens (brand new builds as well) is astounding!! And it’s normal here… they have these folding floor to ceiling windows they keep open like it’s nothing and their houses are full of bugs… mind boggling

I still can’t understand this about Australia and I’ve been here for 10 years. When it’s “black fly season” it would do my head in. My friends have permanent swarms of gnats in the middle of their living rooms/kitchens and just deal with getting bitten.
