The Bug Bivy™ provides complete insect protection through the night. A single pole holds the mesh away from your face, keeping the bugs at a distance. The zipper opening seals mosquitoes and other small insects out. A waterproof floor keeps moist ground from soaking through your bag as you sleep.
This thing isn’t breathable… which surprises me. Shame. I’m a little stunned by this thing. I would have assumed this bug netting was breathable, but it was anything but that when I put it to the test! It’s easy to set up, seems practical and useful, and then you get inside and realize it is GOD awful hot. This netting, you would assume, is somewhat breathable.

almost perfect a very light way to keep bugs off while sleeping solo. at first i was having trouble getting the delrin shock corded pole in and out of the sleeve, but if i watch which way the pole goes in it goes in easy (also curve it in last 8 inches), and when i pull it out i pull on the shock cord instead of pulling on the tubing (doh!) it comes out easy. it has tie out spots but no cord on them – so i guess i will have to add them. i took one star off because i think the zipper should go down at least…
design needs improvement ….. In theory, this design should work fine since it has a bow above the head/shoulder area.
