Super Pacific/Wedge Camper Bug Nets

[poplocknsquat]

Hey everyone. I had a weekend from hell with bugs and heat in my camper last weekend, so I am starting to develop a bug screen product for both sides and the tailgate. This could totally end up just being something I make for me and myself, BUT, if anyone has interest in this, take 2 min to fill this out. I have a Super Pacific, but I would be looking at this as a quick and easy way to facilitate any wedge style camper. Again, this could be totally something just for my own mosquito bite riddled body... But if not, here is the 5 question Typeform survey on the idea. I greatly appreciate it!

I just saw your post on Reddit and then here. I guess it’s a small world of truck campers. I’m considering a Super Pacific and bug screens immediately came to mind. I guess that’s a byproduct of growing up in the south. Have you made progress on your design? I would be interested to see how it goes – that might be a deciding factor for me and this style of topper, though that may sound crazy.

I don't own a wedge-style camper, but the lack of screens on the gull wing doors have been a big deterrent for me. I guess that's a product of all of the companies being developed in arid locations. Here on the east coast, mosquitos and no see ums will eat you alive without screens!

I hope you do come up with something!

If you want some insight, AluCab sells, and has been selling, bug netting for its side doors and rear door for quite some time now. Their setup works about as well as I can envision bug netting working. May give you some ideas.

Oregon AT has just released a really nice bug screen for the rear on AT toppers. It is custom made to fit those particular ones, but who knows if it will work with other brands?

I just received mine yesterday and although I haven't installed it yet, the finish is top-notch!

Found this one on the GFC forum (bug screen posts start in April 22). He did a really nice job designing and sewing them. Something similar for SP would be awesome.

Build Update 04/16/22 — Custom GFC Bug Screen Prototype 👋 It’s been a minute. Since getting my camper installed I’ve been interested in finding a way to make it comfortable to hang out “downstairs” in extreme bug zones without feeling like a hermit and holed up with the panels closed. Bug...
