The screening doesn't keep any dust out? How does it keep UV out?
How often does it need to be power washed?

Yes, the birdcage temperature is the same as it is outside... if it's 49 degrees (as it is this morning), you can't use it. Right now, my husband is relaxing in the enclosed lanai reading the morning paper. And yes, when it's in the high 80's and 90's and the sun is beating down on you, you can't use it.
No, screening does not keep the outside dust from coming in. We paid for the tightest screening on the sides of the birdcage and we paid for the "sunscreen" type screening on the top of the birdcage and it didn't work.
In the summer, with the high humidity, there was a lot of mold that needed to be cleaned frequently.
I'm not trying to discourage you from a birdcage, but I wish we had known some of the "negatives" before we build the birdcage, only to remove it two years later... made decision on our part.
