“All the disaster relief groups before us had been using mosquito nets hung from the ceiling. At our location we only had one ceiling cross beam in one room, so it would have taken a small engineering feat to make ceiling nets work. The freestanding pop up SansBug mosquito nets were definitely the right way to go for us.”
Here are some pics of the SansBug 2-person tents in Haiti taken by a group from North Carolina. This was the first time that a cot was placed inside the 2-person SansBug. Most people place the tent on an air mattress as can be seen from the previous pictures. According to Dave, the cots were 6 feet long so it was a snug fit but it worked.
Since the SansBug 2-person cannot fit in a suitcase, how much extra baggage fees did they had to pay? “Because we told the airline that we were going for disaster relief they pretty much turned a blind eye to all of our additional check-in baggage. That was really nice.”
The 2-person can be folded smaller into a 24 inch disc and taken as carry-on. Alternatively, eight tents can fit in a box 32 x 32 x 7 inches.
