Ideal for travellers backpackers and outback camping this Mozzie net is light compact and is essential for travel in areas where mosquito borne disease is a risk. The mesh allows for good airflow and visibility while the generous sizing mattress skirting and adjustability keeps the netting well away from body parts.
Sea to Summit says
Our Mosquito Pyramid Net provides essential protection against mosquitoes and other bugs. The asymmetric shape means the apex of the pyramid is closer to the head end for more usable headroom. An overlapping flap at the base makes it easy to achieve a bug-proof seal against a floor or mattress while the 50D black mesh netting offers high visibility. Coloured tapes at each corner and a single suspension point ensure easy setup.
Our Verdict
Very lightweight piece of kit that can make a huge difference to comfort and safety. Sold either with or without Permethrin treatment.
About the Holes!
STS mesh products use ultra-fine mesh that has 80 holes per square cm (around 516 holes per square inch). The WHO recommends a minimum of 156 holes per square inch for mosquito nets and there are many products with 2-300 holes per square inch.
This places STS mesh at the top end of the quality scale and therefore one of the best at doing what it does.
