Slumberjack No Fly Zone Personal Insect Screen

I bought a No Fly Zone screen recently and it does exactly what it says it does. The No-See-Um mesh does a great job of protecting you from pesky insects, though I wish the hoop did a better job of keeping the mesh from contacting your face. Some insects, such as mosquitoes, may still be able to get their small mouth parts past the mesh and reach exposed areas that are in direct contact with the mesh though so far I have not found a single place where a bite was delivered while I was in the screen.

The only thing I don't like is the bottomless design of the bag doesn't offer any protection and even with the stretch cord cinched down a person can wiggle out of the protection of the bag.

All in all it is a good piece of equipment when combined with a quality sleeping bag and something to protect the bag off the bare ground. Very breathable, no waking up soaking wet from condensation forming up inside. Obviously not designed to give protection from the elements, nor is it marketed to do so.

This cover for sleeping bags allows the material to contact the skin, allowing mosquitoes to bite through the netting. If you will be in a malaria-prone area, you would be better served with another type of netting. I used mine in West Africa and immediately switched in order to prevent getting malaria. If you just want to keep other biting insects away, it might work better.
