Screen door sweeper

I bet this is simple as all, but I can’t figure it out. How does that brush sweeper come off at the bottom of the screen door? And where can I get a new one?
Thanks

I had an issue with my door sweep because it had a 1/4" gap between the brush edge and the bottom frame......, mosquitoes/ants loved the opening. The OEM door sweep is part of the screen door frame and don't recall how it was attached..., but I know it's not adjustable. I couldn't find a replacement source at that time.

I purchased a standard vinyl door sweep and cut length to suit, leaving the existing brush door sweep in place......., no more gap.

Yep same here. The brushes don’t even touch the sill. Kinda worthless. Glad you found a cure. I’ll probably do these same.
Thanks for your suggestion.

I’m having a similar problem. The piston that keeps the door from flying open or slamming shut causes a permanent gap in the brush.
The rubber door sweep is a good idea. But how would that work with the door piston at the bottom?
