    This won't help with the cinched bottom entry, but you can try putting a pebble or penny or something inside and tying around it from the outside for a little pull out to get the net off of the hammock body a little if you're worried about getting bitten through the net against the bottom of the hammock.

    I've had no problems with mine. Just make sure you don't press up against the net, or the mosquitos will have a party.

    This is the one I use too - great bugnet and I've never been bitten on the behind while using it In addition to all the comments above, I find the Fronkey Style bugnet cooler during hot weather than my Hennessey with integrated bugnet. When used with a ridgeline it provides more space/surface area to vent the heat out of the hammock than an integrated bugnet does.
    Also, it is easy to slide your UQ off to the side during warm weather then back under you when the temps drop at 2AM.

    Not trying to parse words here but "Fronkey Style" and "Fronkey Designed" would be two different meanings would it not?That's why I said it;not trying to start anything or insult anybody at all.Great,got that off my chest!
