[muddog15]

The ENO bug net can be set up on the ground if you have something to tye to or even just thrown over you for temporary protection.

Muddog15 do you have an ENO bug net or did you see someone use it in that fashion?

Greetings All,

Should I consider a DIY?

Thanks

Maybe; the instructions, illustrations, and discussions for DIY designs in the DIY have been interesting. Sewing required? Yes. Zippers? Not necessarily, and with clever design, maybe with almost no loss of ease of use.

I have 2 ENO bug nets, and 3 of there hammocks. There a little on the heavy side I have since found lighter weight bug net but there a general use net not specifically for hammocks. I bought a box shaped net but I haven't used it with my hammock yet, I don't know that I will either I'm not using my hammock anymore for anything but a lazy afternoon.

DemostiX, I am really considering the DIY route.
There seems to be plenty of ideas for bug nets & the cost of purchasing material is not very expensive.

Lazy afternoons/ evenings hanging out by the river bug free would be great.
I went to the ENO website & checked out the bug nets. I think I may try a DIY first.
Thanks for the input.
