Screens don't seal tight

We have found that the screens, primarily the ones on the emergency exit windows don't seal well at all. This allows the bugs to easily get into the camper. The screens on the windows that are not emergency exits seem to be fine. Does anybody have a solution?

I believe I'm going to have the same problem. It looks like the installer used the highest torque setting on his screw gun and deformed the window frame. The screen does not fit in the deformed frame creating gaps that just about any size creature short of a hummingbird could get through. Temps are a bit high but this evening when it gets below 100' I will take a look and get back to you.

I used a thin layer of clear silicon around the edge to fill up the gaps and can be removed easy in a emergency.
