My wife sourced curtain mesh from a haberdashery (that is a curtain/fabric store) along with weighted line used to weight the bottom of curtains.
She sewed a bungy into the mesh which sits along the top of the companionway slide and we had convenient power out sockets on which to locate the bungy hooks.
From the bungy, all around the edge, was sewn the weighted line/rope that we also bought; to give the mesh the ability to form to the companion way entrance.
Egress is now easy to just brush aside the mesh and then throw the weighted edge back over the companion way once you have made your way through.

Having this kind of idea is very wonderful. You can be able to protect yourself from insects at the same time add beauty to your boat.
