How to choose the right mosquito net
Finding a mosquito net that is right for your needs is important and hopefully this article will help you with that.
Are you researching what mosquito netting will serve your needs locally, overseas when your on vacation or working? You may even want to "gift" these lifesaving products to people in Developing Countries where malaria reaps havoc. The ideas below will help you with your selection:
- What will I fix the netting to?
- What will be the best: a light one that needs to be hanged or a net-tent that stands alone but is not quite as portable?
- What size net will you need?
- Does it need be easily transportable and/or stored in backpack easily?
- Do you require a treated mosquito net or a non-treated one?
Here is some useful information that will help with your decision on what to buy:
The most popular nets are the rectangle shape and the round shape. Both come in just over one pound or 550grams. Mosquito nets generally come in Rectangular "box style" and a round (conical) shaped net which features a hoop up the top of the net.
Rectangular "box" nets have small hoops or rings on each corner. Line is run through each ring in order to erect them.
The circular topped one fastens to a hook via an embedded curl shaped piece of material. From the ceiling a hook is embedded.
Each net is carried easily in a bag. Both of the nets are light weight but they do need to be 'hung' from fixed points.
Tents with mosquito proof mesh.
Good mosquito net-tents assemble by them selves ones unleashed from their bags - and are still light. A negative is that this particular style will not fit in a suitcase.
Other nets-tents include ones that are similar to regular tents. These are easier to carry but do not 'self-erect'.
Do you require a impregnated mosquito net or a regular one? Treated or non treated, the mosquitoes will not get in (plus nets are made with safe insecticides approved by The W.H.O, however confirm this when buying your net). Infused nets do add an extra barrier to 'mozzies,' however the reason why they were developed was to combat malaria in wet, warm places - coupled with large scale insecticide sprays.
