Im hiking the GA section starting June 4th going to NC. I was hoping someone could help me decide if i will need my netting for under my tarp. I don't like setting it up, or carrying it for that matter, but if the flies or mosquitoes are bad it makes for a much better nights sleep. The temps at night have been low enough recently for them to most likely not be a problem sleeping. But some first hand information would make me feel much better. Thanks in advance for the help.

Neels to NC last week, bug problem almost none. Some pesky flies on Tray and Rocky 3500 to 4000 ft. is all.
Who knows what it will be the first week of June though.

thanks. Im leaning towards no bug protection (in tent), obviously I will have bug spray and my tarp treated around the base.
