It sets up easily, like a tarp, but it does more than protect you from the rain. Bugout creates an inviting bug-free zone for corralling kids and pets, and relaxing over food and drink.
Nemo says:
Bugouts are a new kind of shelter. They’re really tarps with walls. They’re very simple to use you just tie them between trees or support them with poles just like any other tarp. But the difference is the mesh walls make a relaxing flying-insect-free haven for enjoying life in camp. Set up the Bugout over a picnic table along a river’s edge in the jungle between two Land Rovers on a safari or wherever you need a bug-free zone some shade or protection from the rain. Bugouts also work brilliantly with hammocks.
All Bugouts have two doors that allow you to pass your hammock ropes through and still zip them shut. Whether enjoying a big campsite meal with friends and family or a quiet night of solitude in your hammock it’s even more fun and relaxing when you don’t have to fret the bugs.
Our Verdict
Nemo's Bugout 12 x 12 Mesh Tarp is superb for groups in Scotland - or further afield in all areas affected by insects. Or great for basecamp use when you want to eat in peace.
