"Definitely keeps the bugs out! Also, having a more rugged bottom is so great to store gear or camp with my dog, who gets a bit hot in the hammock with me."

"We have 2 of these. My daughter and I use them for hammock camping with our dogs. They work great for that and for keeping your gear enclosed away from the bugs."

"First outing this weekend. Easy setup, roomy, effective. It turns out to be big enough to handle bunked hammocks for boys. we'll see in a couple of weeks if we can do an adult and a kid. It just worked, and it worked well."

"Worked great! Not a bite on me while I slept."

"This is a great net. It holds my double hammock nicely. It takes about five minutes to set up. The two spreader poles really help it not lay on you while you are in the hammock. The bathtub bottom was helpful in keeping the sleeping bag dry and sand-free before I slept. It packs up easily, too. It kept me free of bugs all night. I highly recommend buying one."

Got questions?
Not much. This net weighs 283 g (10 oz) and packs into a stuff sack about 12 x 6 x 4 in.
It is made for people in a hammock. If a pet joins you, keep claws away from the mesh, because fine netting snags and tears.
No. It is a mesh net to keep insects out. It does not keep animals away, so store food well away from your hammock.
Not long once you have done it once. Run the ridge line above the hammock, hang the net from it, then zip it closed around you.
It is made to hang over a hammock. In an RV or van you would need strong points to hang both the hammock and the net.
It is insect mesh, so it is not made to filter dust or pollen.
Small tears can often be patched with mesh repair tape or sewn with fine thread. If it arrives damaged, contact us with photos.
It hangs from a 23 ft paracord ridge line above the hammock. Two guyline adjusters set the tension, and the net zips closed on both sides.
Yes, if you have two strong anchor points for the hammock. Shake the sand out before you pack the net away.
Yes. The mesh keeps mosquitoes out while air still moves through it. Pair it with a rain fly for tropical rain.
Fold it loosely and put it in its stuff sack. Do not pack it damp, or it can get musty.
It is a different thing: a net over your hammock, not a shelter. It lets more air through than a closed tent, and you add a rain fly for rain.
No, the net is not waterproof. Pair it with a rain fly to keep the rain off.
The net zips closed around the hammock, which helps keep crawling insects out. Still check for ticks after time outdoors.
Only a little. The black mesh is see-through.
It is 12 ft long and fits most camping hammocks. Measure your hammock before you order, and ask us if you are unsure.
How long it lasts depends on use. Avoid snagging it on sharp objects, store it dry and clean it gently.
Yes. It weighs 283 g (10 oz) and packs into its own stuff sack.
Not much. It is mesh, so air passes through. For cold nights add an underquilt, a sleeping bag and a rain fly.
Yes. Zip it closed for an afternoon nap or a read without flies landing on you.
Hand wash it with mild soap in cool water. Do not scrub hard or machine wash it. Let it air dry fully before you store it.
Yes, over a hammock hung indoors, for example near an open window in summer.
A little. Mesh lets air move through while keeping insects out, but any net slows the breeze slightly.
It is polyester mesh with zips. Fine mesh can snag, so keep it away from sharp sticks and buckles, and hand wash it gently.
It fits most camping hammocks, but not every one. It is 12 ft long, so measure yours before you order.
No. This is the net only. It goes over a hammock you already have.
Yes. Hang the ridge line, hang the net, and zip it closed. Try it once at home before your first trip.
A net is a physical barrier, so it does not wear off overnight the way repellent can. You can use both: the net for sleep and repellent around camp.
The mesh zips closed on both sides and pulls tight around the hammock ends, so bugs cannot get in. Air still moves through it.
A hammock insect net is a mesh cover that hangs over your hammock to keep mosquitoes, flies and other bugs off you while air still moves through. It is useful anywhere insects are bad, from forests to lakes.

Spending time in a hammock is one of the most relaxing ways to enjoy nature,until mosquitoes, flies, and midges start buzzing around. Whether you're camping in the woods, lounging in your backyard, or trekking through tropical landscapes, a hammock insect net keeps the bugs off you.
This guide will explore the benefits, types, and setup of a hammock bug net, so you can pick and hang the right one.
A netting for hammock is designed to block mosquitoes, gnats, and other insects, so you can rest without the bites. Here’s why it is worth adding to your hammock camping gear:
Whether you're an experienced camper or just love relaxing outdoors, a hammock bug net makes resting outdoors more comfortable.
There are different styles of netting for hammocks, each suited to specific camping needs.
1. Integrated Hammock Bug Net
Some hammocks come with built-in insect protection, featuring a zippered mesh enclosure. These suit campers who want one item.
2. Separate Hammock Insect Net
A standalone net fits over a hammock you already own. These usually hang from a ridgeline and enclose the hammock.
3. 360-Degree Netting for Hammock
For full protection, a 360-degree hammock bug net covers all sides, preventing insects from entering from below or above.
4. No-See-Um Hammock Insect Net
This extra-fine mesh is made for smaller insects, such as midges and sand flies.
A good setup leaves no gaps. Follow these steps to set up your hammock insect net correctly:
Step 1: Choose the Right Location
Set up your hammock in an area with natural wind barriers to reduce mosquito activity. Avoid stagnant water sources, as they attract bugs.
Step 2: Install a Ridgeline
If using a separate netting for hammock, attach a ridgeline above your hammock. This will help keep the mesh lifted, preventing it from sagging onto your face and body.
Step 3: Attach the Net Securely
Slide or zip the hammock bug net over your hammock. Some models use drawstrings or clips, while others feature full-length zippers for easy entry and exit.
Step 4: Secure the Bottom Opening
Ensure the netting is tucked in or sealed at the bottom to prevent insects from sneaking in.
Step 5: Test for Gaps
Before settling in, check for any openings or loose areas that insects could enter through. Adjust the tension for a snug fit.
When choosing a hammock bug net, consider these essential features:
1. High-Density Mesh Fabric
Look for fine no-see-um mesh, which stops small bugs while air still moves through.
2. Lightweight and Packable Design
Opt for a compact, travel-friendly net that won’t add bulk to your camping gear.
3. Zippered or Drawstring Closure
A full-zip entry provides easy access, while a drawstring closure ensures a secure seal against bugs.
4. The Right Fit
Check the length of the netting for hammock against your hammock. This one is 12 ft long and fits most camping hammocks.
5. Simple Setup
Look for a net with its own ridge line and adjusters, so you can set the tension without fiddly knots.
A hammock insect net is useful in many outdoor settings, including:
To round out your setup, combine your hammock bug net with:
✔ Hammock Rain Fly , For protection against rain and sun.
✔ Sleeping Pad , Adds insulation and comfort inside your hammock.
✔ Underquilt or Blanket , Keeps you warm on cooler nights.
✔ Camping Pillow , Somewhere to rest your head.
A hammock insect net is a useful piece of gear for anyone who loves hammock camping but hates bug bites. With the right setup, you can relax without the bites, whether you’re deep in the wilderness or just lounging in your backyard.
Before your next adventure, add a hammock bug net to your kit and enjoy the great outdoors without the annoyance of insects.
