Lidl only have these in at certain times. As they say, when they've gone, they've gone. I haven't seen them in there for some time but they will get them now and again.
Cadena 88, the DIY shop near the Consum complex, has rolls of mosquito netting and different sized frames. AKI in the Habaneras have adjustable frames which can be cut to size.

To be honest, I'd go to Leroy Merlin, AKI or Brico Depot.
They all sell kits that are purpose made for the job and you'll be able to find something that works for you.

I prefer the roller blind type that fits on the outside, that you can retract during winter/stormy weather so that last longer.

The next best type in my book are the ones where you make a frame that fits on the inside of your sliding aluminum windows that slides from side to side. The disadvantage of these is that they don't work if you have central window locks that lock the two sliding windows together, and they can also block the handles of the sliding windows if you don't allow for this when you make the frame.

There are also types where you make a plastic frame that wedges in place in the window. These are okay for small windows and awkward places where you cant fit the other types, but aren't much good elsewhere.
