Hammocks With Mosquito Net Are A Great Idea

If like me you live in an area where mosquitos, gnats and no-see-ums are legion, you’ll appreciate a hammock with a mosquito net. Nothing ruins a great afternoon like these pests. I buy bottles of Off! mosquito repellant like crazy ’cause I’m allergic to the stings; the bites blow up like balloons on my arms and legs, and HURT, not just itch. There are mosquito nets that you can buy separately as an add-on to your existing hammock; but they’re not too well made, may not enclose your hammock fully (meaning bugs will still get in) and look kinda, well, cheap. Your best bet is to buy a camping hammock that has the mosquito net built into it. That way you know that the whole thing fits together well and that there are no gaps where a stray pest can get in.

I like this model - Hammock Bliss’ No See ‘Um No More - because it features very fine mosquito netting with 2100 holes per square inch - meaning that nothing, not even the tinest sandfly, will invite itself in. The netting is attached the full length of the hammock. Double pull zippers inside and out make it easy to get in and out. As a camping hammock, it’s quick-drying for outdoor use and lightweight. And at well under $100 at this writing, the price is right. Available at Amazon.com. If you need tips for hanging your hammock outside, check out this post. Don’t let the ’skeeters beat you out of a relaxing afternoon in the hammock. Hammocks with a mosquito net will help you take back your yard.
