one of those fluffy yellow dusters with the red thread around the outside, elastic band, as good as anything you'll buy for $20.

Back in the late 80s/early 90s I ran an electronic repair workshop, also sold a few bits like microphones, cables, mixers, lots of stage sound and light related stuff. I managed to sell hundreds of people a yellow duster instead of a proper mic screen on the basis that if it didn't work they could come back and get the "real thing". We only ever had 2 back. You may need "the real thing" if you're outside in gusting wind but 2 layers of yellow duster is usually adequate for fan and breath noise. Just don't pull it too tight over the mic head or it won't work so good

Thanks. I actually found a pair of old woolen gloves and cut two fingers off and stacked them over the headset microphone, then tied a rubber band over the top. It cut out the noise of the fan so now I can game without pissing everyone off.
