Where to buy lightest softest noseeum bugnet

[DougTheElder]

The organza has a finer mesh than the noseeum.

Chiffon can also be used and the mesh, from my memory, is somewhat between organza and noseeum.

Thanks...for some reason I thought those might be coarse enought to let the teenie-weenie little mosquitoes in. The little guys are sometimes more bothersome than the big ones.

Target has dollar bins?!? cool!

Here's a comparison of some nanoseeum and the white organza used for quilt baffles (Note: the organza I used is white and didn't show well against my white background and so I put a black peice of material behind the white organza for contrast)

Thanks TeeDee, how do these two fabrics weights compare? Nanoseeum sure seems light! If organza is close, it sounds like a winner.

I've been using some polyester mesh that is sold as 'aircraft fabric'.
Its a really fine strong mesh and i make the weight at 0.8 oz/sqyd. It costs £2.65/m.
I'm sure its strong enough to even make a hammock out of, I can't rip it.

That stuff looks interesting. I wish they said more about what it was to see if we can find it here in the US.


FYI, TeeDee says that the organza weighs about the same as the nanoseeum.

All I know is that its used for making european planes, I don't even know which part. I've googled it and can't find any more info.
