    Best way to patch a hole in your bug net?

    So I managed to snag a hole that about the size of 2 nickels in my BB. What's the best way to patch/fix this?
    Once in a while you get shown the light in the strangest places if you look at it right.

    Just sew a little patch over it...doesn't have to be netting, a wee bit of nylon will do.

    Sewing through adhesive tape is not a good idea...the adhesive can gum up your needle.
