Garland, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/16/2015 -- Screened porches can provide enjoyable shelter from mosquitoes and other flying insects, as well as rain. Recently a local Dallas, Texas professional with 35 years of experience crafting decking, above ground pool decks and outdoor living environments launched a free resource at http://dallasdeckcraft.com/screened-porches/ to discuss the benefits of screened porches for area homeowners.

The old saying that everything is bigger in Texas definitely applies to the mosquitoes, wasps and other flying critters found in the humid Dallas area. And in many cases those bothersome mosquitoes can carry germs and bacteria which deliver much more than just a nasty bump on your skin. That is why Dallas Deck Craft owner Terry Campbell said he added a specific section to his company's website to discuss screened porches.

Outdoor decking is a wonderful, low-cost way to create a versatile outdoor living experience. But when the night falls, rain comes or disease carrying mosquitoes decide to show up, your party is over. As a Dallas homeowner, Mr. Campbell pointed out that the addition of a screened porch to one's home often times returns nearly dollar for dollar home value appreciation.

He went on to illustrate that ceiling fans, convenient lighting and consumer electronics are items you can enjoy on your screened in porch that you may not have the option of appreciating otherwise. There are of course the benefits of dining and enjoying time with your friends and family without having to worry about biting bugs, rainfall and darkness.

The owner of Dallas Deck Craft told us in a recent interview that there are different advantages and benefits of both decks and screened porches. The 35 year decking and screened porch veteran told us that since 1999, more than 30,000 people in the US have become infected with the West Nile virus through infected mosquito bites.

As a grandfather of two, he stated that if his grandchildren's safety was the only reason for him building a screened porch, that is good enough incentive.

The West Nile virus is a real consideration in Dallas Rockwall and Collin County. The Health Departments from those three North Texas areas have actually coordinated efforts to combat the deadly virus in recent years. And aside from the safety benefits a screened porch provides, Terry Campbell said the unforgettable memories and good times a Dallas homeowner can enjoy are reason enough for considering the outdoor living addition.

There are however many considerations to be made if you plan on screening in your outdoor patio or porch. For example, there are literally dozens of types of screen to choose from. These are available in different colors, and made of either durable fiberglass or metal. The mesh size is another characteristic to be taken into account, as is the type of material you use for your trim. There is even a durable pet screen that is on offer for the pet loving families.

The hot and humid Dallas summers need to be considered as well. A durable and beautiful wood like rough cedar holds up well in that particular climate. For more information and a No Obligation Quote, access the new screened porches resource at http://dallasdeckcraft.com/screened-porches/
