Mosquito netting
The World Health Organization recommends at least 25 holes per cm² to effectively stop mosquitoes. With 63 holes per cm², this mosquito net won't let any through. We have also laboratory-tested the mesh used (report available on request). This mosquito net is not impregnated.
Mosquito risk zone
If you're going to an area with a high density of mosquitoes, we also recommend using an anti-mosquito spray based on lemon eucalyptus essential oil or icaridine. In some countries, mosquitoes can carry serious diseases such as chikungunya, dengue fever and malaria. For tropical zones, don't hesitate to impregnate your mosquito net with a permethrin-based mosquito repellent before you leave.
How to protect yourself from mosquitoes during the day?
Our design teams have developed a complete range to limit mosquito bites. It includes a hat with integrated mosquito net, pants and an anti-mosquito jacket. Thus equipped, you'll no longer be hampered when hiking in the forest, bivouacking or exploring tropical countries.

Distribution
In the event of a hole in your mosquito net, we recommend the use of a self-adhesive patch of this type: https://www.decathlon.fr/p/patchs-autocollants-de-reparation-multi-usage/_/R-p-324994?mc=8584596
Tip: apply the patch on both sides of the hole to prevent it sticking to anything else!
