Default Fiberglass or aluminum screen?

House is in Oakland, CA, mild climate. (It is exposed to PM sun.) The
old screen is AL and is literally in tatters in some places; I asked
owner how long ago it had been replaced, and they said 10 years ago,
which I find odd: how could aluminum screen deteriorate that much that
fast? I know that air pollution corrodes AL, but this is ridiculous. So
I'm thinking fiberglass. How long should it hold up here?
