I have an existing screen porch about 5ft off the ground and the floor is screened under the floor boards. I need to replace that screen under the boards and I cannot take up the floor boards. Any ideas on what I can to do replace the screen to keep the bugs from coming in from under the deck:confused:?

Can you use a molding as a retainer on top or on the side instead of trying to go under the floor boards?

No I cant. It is a completly enclosed screen porch and I just need to replace the screen from the under side(or under the floor boards) I use under the deck as storage.

Is there any chance that you can post a picture of it. I read your original post again & I might have misunderstood exactly where the screen is.

Why not attach new screen to the bottom of the joist?
