I was wondering if anyone has ever added canvas with screens to get more (bug free) use out of their trailer ??
Thanks in advance for the responses.

Hi there, beautiful new Trillium! I have a 1978 Trillium 4500, currently up
for sale. I was going to purchase an add a room for it last year but found a nice screen tent placed up beside the Trillium, to the side of the door, worked just fine.
This year, I am going to work on making my own screen room for my
Boler 17'. The awning isn't that big so will buy a replacement screen for a screen tent, attach a 24" high band of canvas on the bottom. Then sew on some smaller weights as you find on the bottom of a shower curtain. Or loops on each corner so I can use tent pegs. The tricky part will be how to add it to the awning. I am thinking I will need a couple of support poles for sure.
I will keep you posted and if it works out fine, will post a how to and pattern on this site.
