Interesting problem

No, I did not put any screen under my balast because, lucky for me, I have absolutely 0 problems with that. I live right in the Bay Area, CA, so it is very developed and there is very little wildlife such as critters to cause me such problems. I really am very lucky, I run trains year round, no critters, no dear, few weeds (keeping my fingers crossed), sunny, warm weather, no frost heaves, and very few other problems. As for my track shifting, it doesn't because of my roadbed construction. I dig a trench ranging from 5-2 inches with a 6-8 inch 4x4 post sunk every 4-6 feet on which I anchor my track. I have to anchor my track because of my dog, who is a 65 pound lab and enjoys running over my layout (much to my horror). Thanks for the tips, but the problem seems to be going away for the most part....
