How To Stay Bug Free When Cowboy Camping or Under a Tarp - OneTigris Bug Tent Mesh Inner
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- This has been a product that caught my attention last year and now that winter is on the way to being over, I went ahead and purchased it and in this episode we are going to take a look at it and I’ll explain how I plan to use it.
This is a product from OneTigris and it is the 2 person Screen Tent.
Ever since I saw this product, in my mind I have been coming up with ideas on how I would use it. With a tarp makes the most sense for the area that I live at; with a tarp this could make up a fairly lightweight setup with the protection and versatility of the tarp

I do this with my naturehike one person tent which is all mesh.Just put it under a tarp.....no problem!
I do the same with my Naturhike tent, or I use a suspended bug net, which cost nearly nothing and weighs nearly nothing! see 2.00 mins into my video, using a bug net ua-cam.com/video/oK2Igq5Pk8I/v-deo.htmlsi=isGzYuyOau1p6b48
Thank you for the review. Literally almost every video I watch is of someone sleeping on the ground, which is absolutely not an option where I live. Thanks again!🙏🏽✌🏽🤘🏽
I live in NorCal (actual NorCal not the Bay Area). During the late spring to early fall we get almost no rain and the night time temps can be in the 80s during summer. This would be an excellent late spring to early fall option with just a light tarp more for shade purposes than anything or under tree cover in the shade. Decent price as well. Hope it is durable.
Then get a tarp for raining nights!
I picked up this shelter for a backcountry wildlife photography excursion in Northern Ontario and it was really useful.
I had been working up there the week before and the flies were biblical in proportion - horseflies, deerflies, stable flies, black flies in relentless swarms around us. At night, mosquitoes were in the thousands around each of us, biting us through our chairs. When the pick-up boat came to get us, we were sitting in the lake in our clothes and bug suits on our chairs up to our chests in 13 C water to get relief. Our boat driver found it pretty entertaining 😎.
So last week, I brought this shelter and it worked pretty well - easy to set up and we put a tarp over it for the rain. We put our camp chairs in it and used it as an equipment shed. It was a relief in the heat to be able to shuck hot clothes and have some peace to deal with our camera gear and recharge power packs.
There was room for one person to work with their gear or two people to sit and eat like human beings (eating through a bug suit ain’t pretty 😳).
The only thing I’d change is to make it about 6” higher - our heads tended to lean against the mesh and the skitters immediately started stabbing us.
But, all in all, pretty effective and worth the spend.
I have the OneTigris Mesh Tent with 3000 Waterproof Bathtub Floor, Ultralight 1 version. I have used both with a DD Tarp and as an inner for a traditional canvas a framed tent. The Tarp and OneT combo is great for Summer camping in the UK. The advantages of a tent + the flexibility of a tarp set up / without the restrictions of tent. My only caution would be if your taller than 6'2" it may not be for you. OneT rarely make things in Extra Long
Luke don't need no x long, he just a little short fellow that gets a storm ever time he looks out the door.
Hi im in NI
Im putting together my bug out bag i need a covering for me and my whippet. Ive limited funds. I can't decide. Either way I do have the 4 x 4 DD tarp. Would my pup and i fit in the single one Tigris inner.
Im a 60 year old very fit 6,5 stone female?
Please help
Luke, hi. I'm an avid fan. I try to catch every vid u and ur wife put up. U both inspire me to step outside of my comfort zone. I like the old way of doing things but mostly love to camp. So I call it "bush camping". U guys r the best. Thanx for all the lessons u both have taught me over these years. Keep u and ur family in my prayers. U give so much of ur selves, it should b a crime but thank God it's not. You're the best and thanx for all u do for our community.
With Love and gratitude,
Linda Ridenour
I have owned this exact model for little over a year now and I love it. It's very versatile. I can use it with a tarp, string it between trees or use my elephant poles, or with trekking poles. I've pitched this in a field on a nice evening for stargazing. Whenever I don't hammock camp, I'm using this with my 12' tarp. I pitch with a tyvek footprint, and the base have never failed on me. The zippers are great. The doors are designed so they don't drag on the floor when you use them. In my opinion, this is a must-have product for anyone who loves the outdoors.
Another camping C.C. on UA-cam twigged me onto something like this last year or so, so I had purchased a smaller version from Onewind. Surprised this costs about the same, but easily can fit 2 people, or one person with a lot of free space. I'll have to get one, so I have more choices.
Thanks for reviewing this for us to see.
I use a different companies mesh A-frame tent and their 10'x10' ultralight tarp. Together they weigh in at a little over two pounds. A 12' x 12' tarp would be better. The "A" frame ends are vulnerable in rainy and windy situations. I use my rain poncho to cover the more exposed end. The One Tigris is larger than mine, so a bigger tarp would be really helpful.
I think it looks cool. Here in Florida during the summer, the mosquitoes are horrendous as you know. But airflow is so important since even at night it's around 80° or more. With that size though, you could put a portable power bank with a fan or even an AC unit in there so you don't sweat to death. But with it being open mesh, you probably wouldn't have to do that. That was my problem camping as a kid too. The heat inside the tent, even breathable ones was suffocating.
I have this tent... I use it with my onewind hammock tarp as a backup in case I can't use a hammock... love it... 🙂
Works Wonderfully with my 10x10 oil cloth tarp for Bushcraft camping!
Definitely a true 2 person tent, 30 inches wide per person is going to be fine for most couples. Can I make a suggestion? Run a good taut ridge line to hold it up and lose the poles giving all the doors room, and at the same time giving you a place to drape a tarp over and stake it out for protection. To avoid sagging Just get a really tight vertical pitch so when you pull and stake the tarp down it goes back to normal pitch.
it could e made even better with solid sides that could be unzipped and staked up to provide a covered shelter half, so you could still have the openness and a sun cover.
not sure if i am explaining my thoughts correctly.
This is super interesting to me, I tend not to camp for a huge portion in summer because of the heat and bugs! I used to hammock camp, but I'm a little big to comfortably sleep in a backpacking hammock these days. This liner with a silnylon tarp..... very interesting...... and I love the price point.
This item seems perfect for camping in hot climates! Like others have said, all you need is this and a tarp and you are ready to go! NICE! And not too expensive either!!
I really like the look of this, I have a 4mX4m tarp that this would fit under perfectly as a base camp set up
As always love your videos. Thanks for checking this inner tent/bug mesh out for us. Too bad it doesn’t come with an outer shell. I need two, 2 man tents.
Impressed. Like the extra space.
Looks like a good product for the money. Perhaps One Trigris should consider making/offering this:
a semi-circular net -- instead of the A-frame -- that could be adequately covered by a 10' x 10' tarp.
Damnit, I just bought all of the components to make exactly this, minus the bathtub floor. I might as well just buy this now. Haha, oh well... Thanks for letting us know, Luke. Keep 'em coming! ;)
I have this for canoe trips in northern Ontario. During the spring the black flies are big and nasty enough to carry off small animals. I set this up on a ridge line under my large hammock tarp: I can sleep in it at night and fit my camp chair inside during the day for bug relief. For canoeing the weight isn't as critical as when backpacking. However using it dual purpose I avoid having to carry a tent and separate bug shelter.
I live in southern AZ. This would make for a good spring, summer, fall tent with a tarp here. I'd consider it for $60.00.
Still winter in southern New England. 6" of heavy, wet snow today.
This might be my choice for car/canoe camping with my Smokehouse Hammock Hot Tent (but it's not long enough for a hammock).
Thanks, Luke.
I have put a lot of thought into getting this or something similar I do want one. I just wouldn't be able to justify it because of the all of the smaller tents I own which have pretty much all screen inners. Great with my Aqua Quest 15x 15 Defender a campin' mansion 😊
Looks good Luke I might get that for the summertime put under my tarp. Just got back from doing an overnighter in New Jersey. We got 10 inches of snow and I use the Stella from one Tigris. Had a great time. Thanks for the recommendation Luke.
Can't wait for the rain test.
This is a perfect summer set up with a tarp. If it is reliable that is.
Thanks for the review Luke. OneTigris has some good stuff. But this is a pretty large item. I have gotten to where I just use my Lanshan without the fly, and hang a tarp over it for the "Open Air" feeling.
I ordered the solo version today. What motivated my choice is the possibility of a lower height, which is interesting with a small tarp like 10x7 in heavy rain.
I have both of these single & double. Though I use the single more than the double. Single is quite abit smaller for sure and used primarily with onewind poncho. It's use for stealth camping.. when comfort is not needed.
I just got mine, looking forward to trying it out. Very good quality, seems like a really good value. The price has already gone up a little due to the demand created by this video. $6 more is nothing. Amazon stock comes and goes. Keep trying
One Tigris makes pretty good stuff.
They tend to make things a bit smaller. However, this mesh tent seems sizeable.
I would recommend DD Hammocks 1 man and 2 man mesh tents.
seems like a good match for hot summer camping
I just got this for Christmas and can’t wait to try it out in the spring.
I really like this bug tent!👏👏👏
This would work great with my Aqua Quest tarps. Ticks are bad in Indiana too.
Ticks =wildlife=good hunting
I'd like to see a quick review of this inner with the ROC Shield tent. Possible "car camp".
This is very interesting product. But as you said you need a very large tarp. More interested in the one person version. Yes please do a review of that bug tent. Thanks 😃
Hilarious. That's like my tent 35 years ago in the boy scouts.
I’m impressed
Similar to our homegrown Alton brand who make an excellent 1 man bug tent that has plenty of room for gear as well.
This bug tent looks great! So does your hair Luke!
This one may be a little bigger and cost a bit more than the one man version but you lose the two end doors on the one man style.
I think keeping those is worth the extra weight and needing a slightly larger tarp.
Really like the ability or design of this to work well using a ridgeline between two trees and not needing any poles for set up.
Also the adjustable lower stake out straps again a very well thought out addition and this is punching way above its weight class in design and usability.
Sold on this mesh tent being in NFla. plenty of room .. 👍🏻
Collect all the bugs for the next wef banquet 😊
Just what I've bneen looking for.I want one!
I am interested to see how this compares in size to the one man version.
As always, great video.
either of m DD square tarps would cover it, I have the 3.5x3.5 and 4x4 (both measured in meters)
Sweet product- nice video - short to the point- another great job!!
Its works great with the tiegiam tent
I like this tent
Amigo tu eres unico.
LOL - The Jazz Hands get more and more furious every episode now.
Looks the same as the Stargazer tent Terra Rosa Gear in Oz used to make a while back.
I will be very interested in following your use and reviews of this mesh tent. I actually bought this two years ago to use w one of my existing 10x10 tarps bc it seemed like a great product w the third door. I always struggled w whether or not it would pair up w the warbonnet superfly “on the ground” bc of the extra protection the tarp doors would provide. I didn’t get the superfly but it’s always on my radar for a light weatherproof backpacking setup. I had intentionally researched videos w tarp and mesh tent use, including one of yours from the rockies overnight in Colorado? When you used a tarp and mesh tent setup. I have a thing that I want to be able to see out of all my tents and this type if setup seems ideal in 2 seasons. Unfortunately I have not yet gone out in conditions that would be useful for this Onetigris mesh tent. I will be very interested to see a setup using a tree along w the tarp and whatever you decide to experiment with. Thx for bringing another interesting Onetigris product demo. I learn a lot from your gear videos.
Wow....I like this tent❤❤❤❤❤❤
Not much one can say. Sounds like a very good product.
Looks useful and helpful.
Yes the tent is very good l like it .
Ohhh and i forgot to mention the Dragoon Unlimited 1 man mesh tent/ bivvy. Fantastic.
I purchased the onetigris poncho that can turn into a tent and I’ll be purchasing single bug net inner for emergency situations.
I had a squirrel eat the mesh on my tent to get to my sleeping bag in Colorado. He pulled some of the stuffing out of my sleeping bag. Since then I don't like tents with so much mesh.
seems great for what i need right now, but the problem for me is it's only 6'6, and i'm 6'3. lying down i need at least 7'4 to be comfortable. i considered buying this until i saw the length. IMO (such as it is) if you're 5'10 and under it would probably work well for you.
That could be the answer here, in the Missouri Ozarks, where critters proliferate. And $60 is very inexpensive.
This is supposed to be for the ROC Shield. That's why it's so large.
Would love to see this set up with the roc. Would you still need the poles?
Please review the one person version
Awesome!! Love it
Might get one my next paycheck 🤔
Or should I wait for the leak check 🤪
Awesome.
I was wondering about this one and the one person size I am a big guy and I am wanting to add this to my bike kit fir super long rides. Have a a hammock and tarp and this would be used if I can't find suitable trees.
Interesting.
Recommendation for bug shelter NOT in pup tent configuration?
I wonder how hot that close knit mesh makes it inside?
Thanks bro for your insight. Your greatly appreciated. Is there a good spray to put on it, before heading out to camp?
Like it.
The one person looks like the 2 person cut down the middle, with 1 side straight up and down.
Remember not all tents and their inners are created equal. The mesh on some tents will not protect you from mosquitos. That is why, when wanting to wild camp in lowlands swampy or near rivers in hot summer, I take a bug free mosquito free Lifesystems free standing geonet and if necessary throw a tarp on top of it!
NO TREES INCLUDED??? That sucks!
Hey quick question.
Ive had thecsame fingerless gloves now for almost a decade , two pairs .
Yours seem like an identical styoe to my oast ones , finding it difficuot to find a replacement .
Although as you say , winter is over , so prob get another season out of them .
Good video , pretty fast though . You could tske a bit more time to explain .
Maybe im just slow 😂
Even with a tarp will that now beat every other ultralight setup?
Huge... monster you say? If I heard you correctly it's 5' x 6'8". That's way too small for my 6'4" height. I don't buy anything less than 8' long or I'd be wall to wall. I do like the height and the side zipper for easy access.
Question: How does this compare to the DD SuperLight A-Frame Mesh Tent? I'm trying to decide which to buy.
So, a 3x3m tarp would be too small?
Back in stock on Amazon $5 price increase
Out of curiosity, what do you do with all this gear you buy. I imagine you would need to purchase a warehouse to store it all in.
Do you resell it, donate it, throw it away (for the real crap)?
Again was watching and it came to mind so know I am curious.
I like it
Only been an hour and we've already got a completely different thumbnail and title. Lets see how many times he changes this one
TOGR party!
"Seam taped", why? Is it the floor, i was distracted when i heard that.
wow this is huge. I wish it was a little shorter in height and weight was a little lighter. but still a cool tent inter for a tarp setup, but you need a huge tarp...🤥🤥
Unavailable on Amazon already
Just looked on Amazon...and they're unavailable!!
Dang it!!
Funny he deleted my co.ment about John a Bearpaw wilderness designs makes one out of dyneema. Any custom way you want it. Much better.
Went camping with some friends and I brought a similar bug tent. I was the only one who 1. had a good night's sleep, 2. wasn;t totally bitten all over by mosquitos 😄😄😄
This inner seems the right one to have when you only go camping together, but for one person - it is huge indeed!
How to stay bug free while Cowboy/Tarp camping? Use a tent!? Lol. Just bring the tent body of a tent you already own, and while your at it dump the tarp and bring the rainfly that came with it.
Nah this setup allows a view if you want it, and I don't even own a tent. This is good
Hey luke! I think you should try out nature hikes 5.8 R value sleeping pad it's called the light tour I believe. I have one and my buddy has a Xtherm and we both honestly prefer the naturehike because it's more comfortable and just about the same felt warmth. Would love for you to make a review of it so more people can know about it.
Awesome. This would pair well with my 10ft x 12ft waxed canvas tarp. Thanks for the review!
Can you recommend the brand or store you got yours from? I'm prepared to wax it myself if I have to but I have no experience with quality tarps and the online reviews aren't trustworthy. I trust this community more tbh.
I’ve been looking at this inner for ages too.
