This DIY van door bug screen tutorial is so easy, you’ll wonder why you didn’t make one sooner.
Making a magnetic bug screen for our camper van door has been huge for us. It’s heatin’ up in California like crazy this summer, and we needed a way to get more airflow through our van without letting annoying mosquitos and flies in.
The pre-packaged magic magnetic screen doors are a popular option among van lifers, but the problems are (1) they are too big to ship to an Amazon locker and (2) it won’t be custom fit to your van, meaning you’ll have to do work to customize it anyway.
Plus, all the materials you need for our DIY screen cost about the same as a pre-made one, but you get the benefit of having a bunch of extra handy magnets to use for other stuff.
Here are the materials we used:
▶ Bug screen (make sure it’s big enough for your door): [ Ссылка ]
▶ Big magnets: [ Ссылка ]
▶ Small magnets: [ Ссылка ]
▶ Travel sewing kit: [ Ссылка ]
This is a bug screen for Roadtrek doors, but you can slightly modify it for any type of camper van you’d like.
Let us know how it works!

Heyo! Mitch and Day here 👋🏼
We’re just your typical American-Colombian couple determined to live every second of our precious time here on earth to the fullest. After a 10-month solo backpacking trip through South America, I (Mitch) stopped in Cali, Colombia to take salsa dancing classes 💃🏻. I only planned to stay for a couple weeks, but God had other plans for me. I met a cute Colombian girl (Day) in class, those couple weeks turned into a couple years, and before we knew it...we were married 👰🏻🤵🏼
Now we’re traveling the world full time as digital nomads, supporting ourselves by working online 👨💻👩💻
Our goal with these videos is to inspire you to step outside your comfort zone, give you an inside peek at our crazy imperfect lives, and show you that you don’t have to be rich to live an extraordinary life...all you need to do is make the choice!
