Midges (very small insects) are common in northern countries such as Scandinavia, Scotland and Canada. The Headnet Classic is fine-meshed and especially suitable for providing protection against insects that are so small in size. The Headnet Classic can be used with a hat or cap and is ideal for use for hiking, fishing and camping in the wild in northern areas. Thanks to the green colour you can look through the net with ease. The net can be closed off securely along the bottom using a draw-cord.

The mesh size of a midge proof net is 900. Due to the large number of holes per square inch (2.54 cm), the air flow in this net is lower compared to other bed nets. A midge-proof net is therefore not suitable for (sub)tropical destinations as users can feel stifled.
