I just use a normal air filter like the kind you use in a heating system.
I dunno if this is the best but its worked so well.
I started with just a few 2 inch drilled holes with screen over them and a 4 inch carbon filtered exhaust.

Yeah I would rig up a filter from a central AC unit in the wall I would be pulling from like a dryer exhaust port or the openings along the ground in garages.
