Do you not have a screen on your windows? I was in France recently visiting my wife’s family and was surprised to see basically none of the houses we were at had screens on the windows even though they needed to leave them open because they did not have air conditioning. You basically don’t need to worry about insects getting in through the windows with a screen on them.

I found this flabbergasting about the UK. Not only did nowhere have air conditioning, but nowhere had window screens either.

In the place we rented there was just bugs flying in all the time, and the older hotels were unbearably hot since the lack of screens also meant that the windows couldn’t open more than an inch or two.

The UK is not a hot climate, and in general bugs are not a problem (exceptions apply, looking at you scotland).

Okay but I know the UK has rodents. If I left my grond floor windows open we'd get mice inside.

I've never heard of mice just randomly climbing in through windows ngl. (We also don't have screens)
