Bug Nets - Attached to hammock V Cover over top

Bug nets, what are the pros and cons. Your experience please.
Bug net zipped to your hammock or is your bug net placed over your hammock with a bottom or side entry?
Have you tried both, what is your preference and why?

I truly hate zippers and prefer a Fronkey-style bottom entry bugnet. However, I have to use my Chameleon hammock with zippered bugnet when I'm camping with my beagle Joey - he cannot resist jumping out of a Fronkey bugnet because he can see the ground and wants to get free. The zippered Chameleon bugnet calms him down and puts him to sleep since he knows he can't get out.

I prefer a zipped burnet full. Then I can zip back in the morn and have coffee from the hammock.

I currently have a Chameleon with a zippered bug net. It works. I like that I can unzip either side to exit or access gear. But the net falls in my face. The pull out helps a little, but not really enough to compensate for the hassle of tripping over it.

I used to have a Sierra Madre tarp with a built in bug net. I did not like the tarp as it did not allow enough air flow. However I loved that the bug net was held away from my hammock and also enclosed my gear.

My husband has a Pet Palace. He loves that - even when he does not have the dog with him. It is basically a screen room with a bathtub floor which surrounds his hammock. It is too heavy for backpacking, but works beautifully for car camping.
