Getting Ready - Guide to Healthy Travel

The LaMosquettetm Bed Net protects you against malaria

Our popular bed net protects you against the Malaria carrying Anopheles mosquito, providing a physical barrier in addition to anti-malarial suppressive medication and insect repellents. La Mosquettetm is also a key defense against the Triatoma insect that carries Chagas’ Disease, as well as blackflies, spiders, ticks, beetles, roaches, and bed bugs.

The IAMAT designed and produced LaMosquettetm bed net protects you when you are most vulnerable - at night - while resting or sleeping. With a rectangular design, you are less likely to touch the netting while sleeping, drastically reducing the chances of getting bitten (this may not be the case with cone-shaped bed nets).

LaMosquettetm is:

  • Free standing - No ceiling hooks required.
  • Light (only 5lbs) and easy to pack.
  • Simple to assemble and store away.
  • Adjustable - has an aluminum frame for single and double bed sizes.
  • Tightly woven and tucks completely around / under the mattress.
  • Netting is soaked with permethrin insecticide.

As a service to travellers, we offer the LaMosquettetm bed net for sale at cost. We also sell bed nets for baby cribs.

Contact us for group sales - your organization may qualify for a discount based on quantity orders.
