G GIEPHT Mosquito Head Net for Outdoors,Bug Net for Head Hiking,2 Pack,Mosqui...

You may feel silly wearing it BUT it does work! I am currently in hot, humid, rural, central Florida (aka ‘The Swamp’), adjacent to a wooded area and lakes. Need I say more? It’s humans vs “them”. Them being aggressive mosquitoes, no-see-ums, black flies, knats, love bugs, and anything else that flies and bites, swarms or is just plain annoying when gardening, on the trails, or when kayaking. Trust me, it had to get really bad for me to even consider a mosquito head net but the turning point was hearing a news alert on mosquito-borne illnesses (malaria, denge and West Nile) all with reported human cases found locally. After a little research, I decided on this one based on its large size, reviews, and price. The Giepht extra length of almost 20” does fit well over a variety of my hat brims (the tilley, crusher, fedora style straw hat and my safari bamboo pith helmet). Regardless of hat brim size there was enough mesh fabric to protect down pass my shoulders including the bamboo pith helmet with the larger brim and crown. The game changer was having the drawcord hem adjustment for easy on-off and to keep bugs from crawling under and in. It also comes in handy for keeping your hat in place during a strong wind gust. As a newbie and eyeglass wearer, this is ultra lightweight, breathable, and well ventilated so you always have airflow and unrestricted movement without your glasses fogging up. You have good visibility with the netting and after awhile you’ll notice you’re no longer having to swat bugs away. Unfortunately, the trade off is having to listen to the frustrated ones buzzing around you if they haven’t moved on. You will also need to watch yourself in areas where your netting could be snagged or ripped by branches. Overall, this is a great defense against mosquitoes and other nuisance fliers. It also protects against the occasional run in with a spiderweb or silks. It’s perfect for everyday gardening, doing yard work, hiking, or kayaking through the mangroves. It is well worth the money for a 2-pack. Keep one as a backup by attaching a carabiner through the loop onto your gear or gift it to someone who could use it. No instructions were included, but it is self explanatory. It comes packed with the netting stuffed into its own pocket so you don’t have to worry about misplacing a storage bag. It is easy to take out, but re-stuffing can take you a few minutes. My only regret is not having bought it sooner. Considering the price and quality, this was a pretty sweet deal for a 2-pack under $10. Highly recommend. 5 Stars!

It's a cool stylish hat for keeping those pesky mosquitoes away from your face! It seems to work well for the face but make sure to buy some good bug spray to keep them away from your arms too of course.

The drawstring thing doesn't work properly, similar problem to the older ones. I set it at my best fit and then never try to slide it again. Pretty annoying for something is otherwise nice and effective. You should find that you can still slip it off easily without having to undo the slider.

Debated buying the net alone verses those attached to a hat. Being able to use on multiple hats and getting 2 at a great price helped me decide on GIEPHT's mesh net. The mesh is very soft and long enough to go over broad brimmed hats with plenty of length left to hang on your shoulders or tuck into my collar and doesn't interfere with vision at all. It's cleverly designed to pack away, into itself, making a small bag that can easily fit in a pocket or be a barely noticable addition to a pack. Have always hated putting bug spray on or near my face. Pleased with this purchase.

Works as intended. Soft netting, fits well.

I tried another set of nets for hats but they weren't wide enough to work on a wide brimmed hat, the mesh wasn't fine enough, and they were poorly made. These however, are perfect! The pouch for storage is built into the net so that's handy- no losing the little pouch. The mesh is fine and the black color is easy to see through. I thought it might be obstructive but I forgot it was there. Keeps the mosquitos from getting anywhere near my face - my hat has a four inch brim. The net covers my neck and part of my shoulders and chest so very happy with the coverage. These are made better all around- a great buy! We are under watering restrictions and the mosquitos are terrible during the hours we are allowed to water- this makes it bearable to be outside to get things done. Thanks for a good product! Would purchase again.

Definitely cheap. The button latch keeps allowing the thread to move so that it won’t keep the string tight to keep the net snug. I think no see ums can get through? However, I’m being swarmed by them and it is lessening the amount in my face.

keeps the bugs out of face! Lightweight, breathable, very good quality and fits over a large hat!
