The garment includes a hood attached at the neck to cover the head of the user with an open face portion. The perimeter of the face opening is lined with a VELCRO material so that an insect or other small animal excluding mesh may be releasably attached thereto to protect the head and face of the user from insects or other small animals. The face mesh is readily removable for access to the user's mouth. Openings are formed at the shoulders, elbows and knees, and these openings are covered with an insect excluding mesh to provide ventilation along with maximum flexibility and comfort. |

Wearables are provided that prevent—or at least greatly reduce the risk of—mosquito bites by having repellent within the mesh tightly bonded into the actual fibers of the fabric, thereby providing built-in protection from mosquitoes, ticks and other potentially dangerous biting insects. These wearables may be both practical and fashion-forward in design so that humans will be less likely to object to wearing them. Wearables may include track suits, jackets and wraps; however, wearables may take different forms, including but not limited to, pant coverings, wrist bands, hats, scarves, and patches. These wearables may be worn when participating in various outdoor activities, including, but not limited to, playing, bike riding, and camping. These wearables also may be breathable and easy to put on and take off, as well as appealing in appearance. |

An insect-repelling leg garment primarily configured with a tubular member and a semi-conical section fabricated from fabric sheeting impregnated with an insect-repelling solution. The semi-conical section includes an elastic strap configured to engage a structural feature of an article of clothing. The tubular member includes a lower portion having a first circumferential passage for accommodating therewithin a drawstring equipped with a drawstring tie for closing and sealing an annular opening formed by a circular wall section and one's leg. An elastic circular band positioned at the lower portion simultaneously engages loops connected to the lower portion and encircles around one's foot such as to oppose the upward tensioning caused by the elastic strap, whereby the insect repellency inherently present within the fabric sheeting and the structural barriers inherently present within the leg garment collectively serve to protect the lower extremities of one's body against biting insects. |

A protective sleeve-like garment for the legs made of a mesh fabric in a tubular shape with an adjustable elastic band at groin level and another non-rolling elastic band at the ankle, both encased in a woven fabric for comfort. Its dual core purpose is to create a chemical-free barrier between the skin of the wearer's legs and mosquitoes and provide a safety feature of added visibility of the wearer when outdoors, dusk to dark, with the use of light-reflective safety ribbon down the full length of the outer seam of the garment making the wearer more visible to oncoming cars and those searching with flashlights for the wearer. These instances are most significant for children as the wearer of the garment while at play in the evening, camping and hiking. |

The invention is directed at to a pest entrapment device for attracting and trapping flying pests around the head of a person. The apparatus includes an attachable device having at least one member, which member contains at least one cavity to hold a pest attractant. The attachable device is affixed to a head covering on the underside of a bill, brim, visor or the like. The pest attractant can be of a combination of grease, carbon dioxide, sweetener, and a sticky, viscid matter. The pest attractant also acts as a trapping substance to capture the flying insects. The pest entrapment device can be removed for cleaning and reapplication of the pest attractant. |

The inventive concept is directed to an insect protective garment that is manufactured of synthetic fibers to produce a non-woven fabric to result in a predetermined thickness that will not allow the stinger of an insect to reach the skin of a wearer. The resulting non-woven fabric exhibit's a multitude of interstices that allow a ventilation of the skin of wearer to be ventilated in certain climates. The non-woven fabric cannot collapse on itself to reduce its thickness. The garment my consist of an upper torso covering jacket including a hood and a lower torso covering pair of pants.

Provided is protection gear against harmful insects that enables controlling and capturing of harmful insects in addition to protection against harmful insects. The protection gear against harmful insects includes a protection net made of ventilative cloth, woven fabric, or nonwoven fabric, the protection net being worn to cover the head, trunk, arms, hands, legs, and feet of the human body; and a fastener for fastening the protection net to the human body. Since the protection net is coated with an insecticide and/or a repellent, the effect of and insecticide and/or repellent lasts. Also, good durability is ensured since a washing is not required. Even if the sizes of ventilation holes of the protection net are larger than harmful insects, harmful insects can be dissuaded from settling on it. Furthermore, due to comfortable wearability, it can be used as a substitute for pajamas outdoors. Still furthermore, since the adhesive net is inexpensive and disposable, the protection gear against harmful insects can capture harmful insects, while maintaining a lasting insecticide and/or repellent effect. |

An article of clothing includes, in one embodiment, four alternate layers made of (i) an air permeable material such as cotton and (ii) a non-air permeable material such as polyethyleneterephalate. Two intermediate layers both include a plurality of throughholes therein covered by the outer layers. The throughholes of the second layer are laterally offset from the throughholes of the third layer such that no direct path is provided through the throughholes between the intermediate layers so that the bites of insects are resisted. In another embodiment, two layers are provided each including a pattern, e.g., alternating stripes of an air permeable and a non-permeable material. The stripes of the two layers are offset so that non-permeable material of the two layers, taken together provide an insect barrier. |

Lower body, upper body, and hood garments formed of a textile that inhibit the ability of insects or small animals to bite or sting the wearer. The textile of the garments have a base fabric and a cover fabric separated by a spacer layer. The base fabric is open to facilitate breathability. The cover fabric is sufficiently closed to inhibit insects, spiders, or other small animals from passing through the cover fabric, and sufficiently open so as not to inhibit the breathability of the textile. The spacer layer separates the base fabric from the cover fabric with sufficient distance to inhibit insects, spiders, or other small animals from probing through the textile to reach the wearer. |
