The Improved BedNet System (IBNS) is the inner body of the EBNS and was originally designed to fit securely onto a military cot with webbing and side release buckles on all four corners. The IBNS can be upgraded to the EBNS with the addition of CatomaåÕs Rainfly Kit. The BedNetåÕs instant deployment and cot compatibility make it an efficient, fast-access shelter to protect soldiers from insects while resting on a cot and a great shelter for medical patients in the field. It is EPA registered and has Permethrin bonded to the material for insect repellency. The BedNet is supported by a strong and ultra-light .134 diameter pultruded fiberglass rod which winds through the shelter, expanding it to its given shape. When the rolled up BedNetåÕs cinch strap is removed, the shelter is released and snaps into shape automatically. No assembly or set-up is required. A carry bag is included.
