Alternatively, for larger damages, cut out the damaged section and replace it with a new piece of screen material, securing it in place with a spline tool and spline. Once the repairs are complete, reattach the screen to the window frame, ensuring it fits snugly and securely. With these simple steps, you can restore your window screen to its original functionality, keeping insects out and maintaining proper airflow in your home.
