I think so as long as you had a way to anchor it to keep it from sailing away.. There's an extra flap that goes the entire way around the bottom edge that lays flat and you could lay boards or bricks on top. I question if mosquitoes would come up from below because I'm not certain they'd figure that out. I find that they throw themselves at the screen wherever is closest to me - as opposed to going to the bottom to hunt for a gap or opening... also, you could put a cheap tarp on the deck if it was an issue. Hope this helps.

I would put some old towels or blankets around the outside edges. Of course, in Maine during no-see-season, nothing will protect you. :-(

It should work fine on a deck, provided your deck is big enough to accommodate it. Easy to put up and down, although the picture shows a floor in it, but there isn't. We used it for a music festival where we camped and it kept the bugs out of our food and gave us some relief from them.

I would think that it could. You would need to fasten it down for wind with something--nails? And if your deck is like mine it has space between the boards that might let misquitos come up from underneath.

I have found that if you spray up high like on a fence etc, then it will cut down on mosquitoes. Those little buggers are a nuisance. I have also purchased a "citronella plant" and that also seems to help. Hope this helps!

this thing didn't scare off any flying insects from building high rises in our yard, right next to it..waste of money, 'fraid to say..we finally contacted local mosquito yard control and they sprayed and we found dead wasps, yellow jackets, spiders everywhere - it was awesome! we got our yard back!! good luck to you

I am not sure. We are using it as a privacy screen. It seems to have a tight mesh but as we have not used it specifically for mosquito protection, I cannot honestly recommend it for that purpose.

our cottage is by the water and near a forest and there are mosquitos. It has been real good at keeping the little suckers out. Be aware that when you receive it check for the plastic shower curtain rings that hold the mosquito net in place; they forgot ours and it was scramble to find replacements

I use my net to cover my blackberry bushes, it has small holes but I don't know if it would keep mosquitoes out.

We tried this a few times and did not work at all for us. We have pretty thick mosquitos. We did the entire lawn where we hang out.

This is designed yo attract mosquito's outdoors. Refer to the placement mguide included with it, you should place in a shaded area close to where they breed and between breeding and human activity.If you have mosquito's in your house I would contact a pest control company

Yes it works very well on Mosquitos; leave on 24 hrs a day: empty basket about once per week...lots of bugs (including mosquitos!) Recommended without hesitation.

Because moving air has been proven the best way to keep Mosquitos away the answer is yes, to a point.You have to be in the area that is covered by the fans moving air. Chancy at the edges.

Effective enough for scaring birds and keeping them from messing on our deck... but not sure about your boat. We used the sizeable hole on the bottom to slide it onto a piece of pvc pipe as far up as it would go. Winds have never toppled it... i think this method 'could' possibly work on your boat.

Sure, I have it under canopy on my deck. Got to clean it once a month with air compressure to blow off all dead bugs. Not sure about out in open on rainy days maybe make sure something is above it for cover. No more Mosquitos!

It will work on a deck but you might need to use an umbrella foot that can be fixed to the deck, instead of the ground anchor that comes with it.We are very pleased with it.

Hi Mary! It should! I bought it mostly to keep the mosquitos away but it should work as a tick deterent as well.

My concern was for a product that would repel mosquitoes; I haven't encountered no-see-ums or other blood-suckers. I suggest that you go to Avon's Web site and ask them. I'm sure they would know BUG GUARD'S capabilities.

I don't know exactly about mosquito net, but I have a screened porch I have used it on and it seems to keep bugs and insects out. Hope this might help. I've been happy with the screen.
