We've used the same method as Stormster for David. And he's a very adept climber and door opener, so he gets into everything. We have all household cleaners and medicines in a closet that locks with a key. (I don't trust those baby proofing knobs. He'll crack those any day now.) We have toilet and 'fridge locks and locks on kitchen cabinets that aren't safe. Knives are kept up high. Everything else is toddler safe.
But Michelle, I think your original concern was that Joshie gets up at night when you can't watch him, right? I'm still shuddering at the lightbulb chewing episode. He needs a lot of supervision. So I can see why you need some way of keeping him from wandering at night. I don't know about a screen, because I've never seen a screen that wouldn't eventually break if you leaned on it hard enough. But I can totally understand the need for something - a better gate or a french door. If your DH isn't comfortable with a screen, have him problem solve with you. What would his solution be? Because clearly this is a problem that needs to be solved ASAP.
