Default bug suites??

Im going to be going bear hunting and after the past couple years of being litteraly eaten alive i need to figure something out. Just wondering if anyone has used these bug-proof suites? how do they work? what brand would you recomend? are they warm or heavy?? thanks.

Kyle I have a bugtamer suit and it works great. Mine is light weight and I wear it over my outfit. Usually come fall for deer/elk I will wear it under my camo. I wouldn' t say it is warm, but layering in early fall can cause some sweat but much better than bugs eating at you all day.

I' ve got a Bug Tamer also. During early bow I' ll wear it with nothing but underwear and socks underneath it. Never get mosquito bites and around here those things get big as crows. It won' t stop chiggers but as long as you' re in a tree stand and not wandering through the brush and weeds you should be ok.
