    Is it worth having a mozzie net here in the UK?

    I'm in two minds with this, my current hammock does but previous didn't? What are your thoughts?

              I agree, it's better to regret something you did than something you didn't do.

                      As already said the answer is YES I have been to a lot of places around the world and wish I had a mossie net with me, my DD hammock has a built in net and its been brilliant, I always have a mossie head net with me in my pack for when walking about.

                                If it wasn't for my mesh then one day I just might wake up to find a hornet in my sleeping bag. That's more of a gamble than I'm ever going to be prepared to take.

                                            well there's a nightmare scenario I hadn't thought of. that's gonna stop me sleeping till I get a net.

                                                Absolutely !!! I get bitten to pieces without ... that's why I stopped using the tarp n'bivi ...
                                                carrying tarp bivi and some sort of mossie netting was silly ... might as well be in a tent !!!
                                                This is why I'm keen to find out more about hammocking !!!

                                                        as most places I seem to go cliff top walks , beaches , windswept saltmarshes ...
                                                        bleak hilltops etc ...
                                                        just dont have suitable trees !!!
