If you own a non - netted hammock like the Camping or Scout hammock, having insect protection is a great option. The Bushmasters Hammock Mosquito Net provides 360 - degree ultra - fine netting. It comes with a zippered entry, suspender poles with elastic to lift it up, and a secure drawcord closure at both ends. This net was developed in collaboration with Bushmasters.co.uk, a company that conducts military and jungle survival and training courses in the Amazon rainforest. So, you can be confident it will keep out all insects, even the pesky Scottish midge! Features include fine - mesh netting that keeps all insects out, with two drawcord openings at each end for passing the hammock webbing through. There are also two lightweight and compact spreader poles to create a 60cm width, two lengths of elastic cord to suspend the net, and a zippered entrance. Specifications: It's black in color, weighs 550g, and is suitable for all DD Hammocks up to 2.7m long.
Using the DD Bushmaster Hammock Mosquito Net is easy. First, pass the hammock webbing through the two drawcord openings at each end of the net. Then, attach the elastic cords to the suspender poles and set them up to give the net its 60cm width. You can now enter the net through the zippered entrance. When using it, make sure the drawcord closures at both ends are tightly secured to keep insects out. For maintenance, it's a good idea to wash the net gently by hand in cold water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine - washing, as this may damage the fine - mesh netting. Store the net in a dry place when not in use to prevent mildew and damage.
