#371 Protecting a Suka with a Screen

Question

This year we had a tremendous plague of wasps in the suka, is it permitted to put a screen on top of the schach since it lets trough rain and light?

Answer

Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’ opinion is that technically it would be possible to create a screen that would be permitted when intermingled with the schach. However in practice, existing commercial screen material may not comply with the Halacha requirements.
