So I've always used the no-seeum netting on my hammock because its integral to my Warbonnet Blackbird hammock. But I need to reduce my pack weight further and am considering going with a no net hammock, saving 7 ounces.

I'm hiking the Long Trail next August,
But before I buy another, lighter hammock, I'd like to know your experiences with mosquitos, flies, whatever at NIGHT in August.

I believe most of the shelters are at least 1500' or higher so I wouldn't think they're bad enough for netting.
