I moved to Florida three years ago and just bought a house nine months ago, so this may be common knowledge for longtime residents, but I'm stuck:


I have a screened pool enclosure. There's some dirt and pollen and stuff that builds up on it, which is ok, I have a pressure washer and it's not to hard to take care of that.



My issue is that there are little tiny tufts of plant matter that get stuck in the screen. I'm not sure what they are, but I think they're from a cedar tree in my neighbor's yard. They're not needles, but little green clumps of vegetable matter.



These get really stuck in the screen and seem impossible to clean out. I've tried physically scrubbing them with a sponge or pool brush while using cleaner, to only minimal effect. The only thing that works is getting the pressure washer right up close (like just inches away) to the screen, and even that isn't 100%. And it's not an option for the high screens that are 12 feet above the pool.


Does anyone else have these tufts in your screen? Any advice on getting rid of them?

It involves getting on the roof of the house with an adjustable long handled pool brush and sweeping the debris off the side. It's a tad hazardous if you're not used to it and why it's one of those tasks a professional should handle. A friend used these guys for their enclosure. https://www.aquapressurecleaningorla...ing-orlando-fl
