A mosquito net is one of those NYSC camp items people debate until they spend a few nights in a hostel-style environment. Some people manage without it. Others are very glad they packed one.
Camp accommodation varies. You may not know the exact hostel condition before you arrive. A portable mosquito net gives extra comfort and peace of mind, especially if you react badly to bites or sleep lightly.
The best mosquito net for camp is packable and easy to set up. Avoid anything too bulky unless you are sure you can carry it comfortably with your other items.
A net does not replace general cleanliness or personal care, but it can help you sleep better. In camp, better sleep matters because mornings can start early and days can feel long.
If you are trying to keep your bag light, prioritize the items that affect sleep, hygiene, security, and daily movement. A mosquito net sits comfortably inside that category for many corps members.
