Guardian Bug Net

At first i thought this bug net would be weak, like pantyhose. But it isnt like pantyhose at all. It is very nice thick netting and i have no fears of it ripping. If youre like me and skeptic about using this outdoors or scared of ripping it i can assure you that you will not. It comes with a stuff sack included, and that is very convenient. This comes with line included, maybe 13 feet or so but its not very good but easily replaced. At the top of the net you will find 4 or 5 hooks, cant remember. These will hook onto your ridge line, or line that hangs above your hammock to hold stuff. This will fully enclose your hammock and hang below you to protect you under neath.Pros:-strong-a lot of holes to keep all bugs out-cord locks at the ends get really tight to your hammock-stuff sack insludedCons:-makes it awkward getting in and out of

This princess can't stand bugs, and this bug net does the trick. I use it with an ENO doublenest or other hammock. I normally have a structural ridgeline so I turn this inside out, use the ridgeline hooks on the inside and it keeps the bag off the ground when I'm not filling out the hammock.My favorite thing so far was taking a sleeping pad with me (thermarest neo air) and since it was warm when I first got in the hammock, I could put the pad beside me in the netting instead of in the hammock. When it got colder I could move the pad under me, between the hammock and net and it would stay in place and keep me warm. On a much colder night I put the pad inside the hammock like normal, but on the other nights and times when the temperature was changing I had all kinds of options. I learned this by accident on a trip at multiple altitudes and temps and I think I will hammock camp like this year round now.And it stops bugs! On the C&O canal there is 180+ miles of stagnant canal water and the mosquitos would have eaten me alive but they only got my hand once when it was laying against the net one night. Yes, they can bite through the net, so keep your skin off the net.The net is strong and sturdy, heavier than "it needs to be" but sturdy enough that you don't have to worry about it getting big holes if it comes in contact with a stick. If you can afford the weight and bulk of this net, then you won't be disappointed with it. Me, I'll skimp on other things (like food) and take my net with me from now on.

This is the best purchase I made for camping, hands down. This net has kept everything out of it and thereby creating great hammock time. When we’re not camping, this is in our back yard (somewhat shaded). The meshing and zipper are incredibly sturdy and well built. We purchased both the tent and net around 3 years ago and it’s just as solid today as when we first received it.I’d highly recommend this netting for your Eno (or other) tent!

great net! It does it's job perfectly, and you have plenty of head room. Only complaint is that the cord that come with it is far to short, its only about 10' or so, and that is not nearly long enough to tie around a tree, and then stretch across enough distance to hang your hammock. I strongly recommend getting about 25-30' of paracord at your local hardware store, its cheap strong and will do the job much better than what was included.

I just got back from a two day camping trip where I used this bug net. It was awesome. The ENO Guardian net did its job very well. I woke up both mornings seeing bugs walk along the outside of the net, but no bugs inside!Few things I will mention, it can be a bit awkward to get in and out of the hammock with the bug net but this may be due to the fact that the string included to hang the net from is wayyyy too short to suspend it from tree to tree. The Eno instructional video I found for this product, depicts someone tying the ridge line from the two trees the hammock is suspended from. This was not possible in my usage of this product and I tried many tree distances, it always ended up being around 2 ft too short to reach around the other tree.So if you are going to buy this product invest in an additional rope longer than the one provided for your ridge line. If it was long enough I think this could've made getting into the hammock less awkward because the entrance would've been much higher (I had to tie it onto my suspension straps since wasn't using a rain fly.)Overall this is a great product, I would definitely recommend it. Mosquitoes LOVE me and the only bites I got this weekend occurred when I wasn't in my guardian bug net.

What a difference this makes. It's so much nicer being able to get away from the mosquito's, like the tenters. I can climb inside and read for awhile in peace. I did a 4 night trip recently and after the first night I left the net on the hammock and just rolled it all up together. I packed just fine and the next night, and subsequent nights, I just pulled it out and hung it all up. It was pretty easy and faster. It's definitely durable. I fell out of the hammock one night while reaching for something I dropped and hit the ground. I've never fallen out of my hammock before. The bug net stretched and I was able to reach up and unzip the entry and climb out. Nothing tore, and nobody saw it!

My specs for reference:6ft 5 inches tall 240lbskammock python straps "polyester and do not stretch"ENO Doublenest garnet/goldLive in South East Florida next to mangrove swamp...First experience: I live next to a mangrove natural area here in south florida, every evening about one hour before dusk it is impossible to go outside due to the noseeums which for those who don't know are a tiny biting gnat that is almost impossible to see, and their bites itch and burn all over and you can hardly see them.I bought the guardian bug net so that I would not have to be chased inside during the most beautiful part of the evening.It took me a few minutes to set it up (watch some videos online to get a good idea) I read my book up to a few minutes before dark watching the boats on the intercoastal. As soon as I got out of the net to break down and pack up I was eaten ALIVE! I mean the noseeums and mosquitos were out in force, and I had not one bite while in the net in the hammock! I am a believer.As for the details, the ridge line is adequate if you intend to string it from one loop higher on your suspension straps and not try to run it all the way out and around the tree. which I believe is redundant anyways.... I had no issues with the ends opening up like others reported ( i think they were stringing their ridgeline up too high causing the hammock to pull the cinching ends open and allowing critters into the net. I believe that it is all in the setup!)all in all a great solution and a great product! I have been nothing but satisfied with ENO products thus far! Keep the smart ideas rolling.I intend to use my hammock setup to go paramotor camping. putting all essentials into my harness and flying to a remote location to spend the night there and then fly back home in the morning! Should make for some great adventures! Check out powered paragliding and fly camping if you are one for adventure and adrenaline!

I consider this an absolute must for warm weather camping. I live in Florida so even in the cool months the mosquitoes are relentless. Not in here, though. Slept a night in the back woods in central florida on halloween weekend and they were still out in force, not a single bite all night long. I DID, however, hear them buzzing around beside the hammock trying to find me. At first I thought one had been trapped in the net with me and I was in for a night of trying to find it, but they were actually outside, frantically trying to get at me. The net did its job well, nothing made it in all night.I like the side entry better than bottom entry like other nets have. It is very easy to sit back into your hammock, then zip the net shut before you lay down. Same thing in reverse when it's time to get out. The whole thing compresses into a softball-ish size so it adds nothing to my pack.I now bring it on every hike, even if I anticipate nice clear bug free nights. I would rather have it, and some sleep, than save the small amount of weight and size

軽い、設営しやすい、丈夫、コンパクト、言うことなし。主に夏場のキャンプに使用していますが、快眠もでき、非常に満足です。オプションのカヤと併用しています。

It meets expectations. Good netting, good attachement points. Whether or not it is durable - we will see in a year time.

Pros:- easy to set up- easy to get in and out of due to the large two way zip- effective- robust meshCons:- larger and heavier than the Guardian SL- not the cheapest bug net out there

Works. Simple.
