Before you had kids, you spent your weekends exploring new trails, hiking up mountains, making fire from twigs. You spent your labor browsing the aisles of REI and gave birth at the rock climbing wall. Okay, maybe not all of those are true. But if even one is true, you’re probably very familiar with Kelty, which has been making products that help you pursue your passion for the outdoors since 1952. And just because you’ve had a baby, Kelty doesn’t believe you should have to slow down.
When heading outdoors with your baby, particularly to a mosquito infested area, most people are prone to slather on the bug repellent. The problem is most bug repellents contain DEET, a chemical developed by the US government in the 1940’s for use as a pesticide in farm fields. But if you’re concerned about such things as organic agriculture, you probably don’t want to slather your child directly with the same pesticides. There are natural alternatives, but they are not 100% protective in protecting against little critters who want to munch on your little critter.
That’s where the full-coverage No-Bug Net comes in, protecting your little ones (without chemicals) from pesky insects on all your outdoor adventures.
When used with the FC Sun/Rain Hood, the No-Bug Net attaches to Kelty Kids FC Carriers with a hook and loop closure.
The Mesh/Blueberry No-Bug Net is made of 600D Poly and Nylon mesh and weighs in at just thirteen ounces. With a hook-and-loop attachment, it is simple to attach at the slightest hint of sun. When you reach your destination, you can take your baby out of your Kelty Carrier, and conveniently leave the Kelty FC Sun/Rain Hood and No-Bug Net on the carrier for when you’re ready to head back out onto the trail.
When the bugs start to buzz, you no longer have to worry about slathering your baby with chemicals. You’ll use your Kelty UV Cover over and over again, all year long. When planning your adventures, be particularly aware of mosquitoes when in a wooded area or near water. Mosquitoes are also most active in the early morning and late evening. Be sure to use your Kelty No-Bug Net at those times.
The Kelty No-Bug Net draws on Kelty’s 50 years of backpacking heritage to keep your little one protected from the elements for major hikes through the woods or jaunts about town. Kelty has been making products to help you pursue your passion for the outdoors since 1952, and Kelty believes you shouldn’t have to slow down just because you’ve had a baby. With the Kelty No-Bug Net, you can share all your favorite activities with your new little adventure-seeker.
