Hey guys, I made a video showing some of the updates that I've made to my BIAS Weight Weenie Micro hammock, along with the DIY attached, zippered bug net that I've added. Now I love this hammock even more. Hope you enjoy.

Very awesome, I was wondering if anyone had added a bugnet to any of the BIAS Hammocks.
Great job on the net mod!!
Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!
Man this is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You have me totally reconsidering how I want to fab up a bugnet.
There are two rules for success:
1. Never tell everything you know.
That rocks. A very well thought out kit. Love it.
Glad you guys like it! I'm uploading another video that's a longer more detailed rambling explanation of how I did it. Thanks for the support, HF rocks!
Looks awesome...
My only concern would be getting bitten through the thin hammock material, but permethrin would solve that issue I'm sure...
Live, Laugh, Love, if that doesn't work. Load, Aim and Fire, repeat as necessary...

Wow, amazing job. I have a Weight Weenie - I see a similar project in my future now!

I was in a particularly mosquito infested place... The buzzing kept me up at night. I thought the mosquitoes were inside the net (they weren't) because it was so loud. You could clap your hands and kill three mosquitoes. I never got bitten through the hammock... I was clothed, and if I feared being bitten, I would have put down a layer under me... blanket, etc.
That said, my elbows and forearms got eaten alive where they touched the net. Bugs bit through the net easily and I had soaked it in permethrin. I learned to keep my arms off the net after that.
