You can use aquarium air diffusers for vent filters, they are cheap and disposable and plug right in to vent size tubing.

They come in a varity of sizes and styles (the glass bead ones work well).

How about the little fuel filters like the ones in chainsaw or weed whacker fuel tanks? I think they are called finger filters and they work perfectly for keeping insects out of the vent lines.

And then there is the option to use a cover with a "Remove Before Flight" streamer or even the little spring loaded cover that's used on some GA aircraft.
