Sea To Summit Mosquito Head Net

From summer canoe trips in northern Minnesota to sweaty jungle treks in Costa Rica, the Sea To Summit Mosquito Head Net gives you full protection from those nasty little biters. Sea To Summit designed this head net with black mesh to give you better visibility and 500 holes per square inch to keep intrepid mosquitoes from poking through. The head net packs down into its integrated stuff sack, and features an elastic draw cord to seal insects out.

Bottom Line: Back off, bugs.

Absolutely. I've always used it with a baseball cap and it's worked great. I'ge found that closing the drawstring at the bottom over a shirt collar works great to add space between the net and neck/back if using a cap.

It's easily become a part of my essential outdoor gear; pure bliss when the bugs are out.

Appearances don't matter in the backcountry..

I used to make fun of my friend who would say that having one of these was a must have. After hearing numerous rumors about how buggy it was going to be in the Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne, I got one before the trip. Thank god! Just wearing it over a simple baseball cap made all the difference. Seeing my friends without one suffering through the bugs made me so grateful to have this. It packs away so tiny, its worth it to just carry it around on every hike just in case.

I don't think this will stop no-see-ums. It will get in their way an deter them but probably not sop them. The trade off with this item is it is almost invisible to the wearer. I think a tighter mesh would be an optical annoyance.

It should be. Its going to be better than not having one! You can adjust the bottom cord however you want so I would say just tighten it up to whatever is the most comfortable.

Crucial gear

By:

This is a must for the spring and summer. Think about all those times either during the day when you stop for a minute on the trail and a horde of flies and bugs finally launches their attck. Or at night when you have the headlamp on and you attract large moths and other massively annoying insects. This net is crucial, you put it on (careful one time I was being assaulted and put this on quickly but managed to trap one of the moths inside the net!) and the bugs just keep coming but they dont bother you a bit. It is amazing my buddies were so jealous when i pulled it out of my bag. The net itself is great it has a draw string at the bottom to make sure the arthropods cant sneak in!. Durable to pretty strong netting, a must!
