   Mosquito nets are not fully enclosed. Mosquitos can't fly under them, apparently. But bed bugs can walk under them, so they will not work, in my understanding. They do not fully enclose you.

   They may be helpful for those concerned about BBs parachuting off the ceiling (I never thought this seemed like a big issue, but I guess it could depend on where your infestation is coming from). Oddly, it's not so easy to get them in the US. I contacted a Japanese company that is making them for use in anti-malaria campaign in Africa, but they are not for sale here. I found that most of the ones you can buy for camping don't have insecticide in them.
