Mosquito Netting Information

When camping during the summer there may be a lot of Mosquito's at night.  You may purchase ready made mosquito netting designed to fit over a standard size camping cot.  This netting is usually available at Ace Hardware, Wal-Mart, or most camping and hunting stores.  In order to set this up inside a tent you will need to make a frame.  See below for a simple design made of 3/4" schedule 40 PVC.

These pictures show square tubing... Just pretend its round.
