    I've been trying to sleep in my hammock in the warm weather but mossies and midges keep spoiling my fun. I bought these https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B078V68Z4G/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but the bleeding midges got through the mesh. The can't get enough of me. I'm looking at these now https://www.ddhammocks.com/product/dd-bushmasters-hammock-mosquito-net?from_cat=31. It says it will keep out everything, including the Scottish midge. I have a hazy memory of being told that Scottish midges are bigger than ours, can anybody tell me if that's true? Does it mean that my local midges will get through the mesh?
    Or can anybody point me towards a better solution? Skin So Soft etc (I've tried them all) are just not cutting it. That's how delicious I am. I need a physical barrier.

    Things to consider...
    Weight or bulk isn't an issue, these are for use at home, not on expeditions.
    Price is a consideration, obviously.

    Thanks.
