			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You&#8217;ve used your camo tarps and have all of your equipment set up, but there might be a few spots which you are not completely satisfied with. This might be something small but still noticeable or even some last minute piece of gear you forgot to plan for. Using camo netting to conceal these last little areas is an easy and affordable way to finish setting up your camp. Best of all you will make less noise than when using a plastic tarp, so this can be done at the very last minute with much less of a headache. There are many varieties available, from the military grade styles to mossy oak which is more readily available.</p>
<p>Of course the style of camo netting you choose will be dependent on what you are concealing, and where. The best part is that when sitting behind the netting, you will be offered at least some visibility when looking through, without giving yourself away. There are some people who construct their own hunting blinds using just the netting, as it will often be enough to blend in well with the environment.</p>
<p>Probably the best reason to make use out of camo netting is how versatile and tough the material generally is. Most will be made of burlap which can hold up to quite a bit of tension without coming apart. This means you will have the option of stretching between trees and not have to worry about it coming apart as long as you don&#8217;t pull too tight.</p>
<p>Other than the style to match your terrain, you will want to find a higher quality netting that can withstand the elements a little better. Something less susceptible to rotting when left wet and roasting in the sun would be a good choice. There are also styles available that are reversible depending on which side you face out. This can give you more options in where to set up as well as letting you get more overall use out of the netting. Of course there are plenty of basic drab colors which are suited for a larger variety of environments, though won&#8217;t offer the same level of concealment. This is good for those of us who are often on the go and travel to various places quite often.</p>
<p>The netting is also very light which means it is easy to stow away in your gear and can easily be thrown out at the last minute to cover either your gear, or just used to block view of a particular place. This versatility is why no outdoors man should be without some camo netting when setting up camp or a hunting area. Even using it along the ladder of a tree stand will make your chosen spot less visible by blocking the glare cased when using a stand that has a semi gloss or enamel finish on the paint. With the material being generally lightweight, this can easily be set up very quickly by one person, and secured with even something as simple as twist ties when in a pinch.</p>
<p>Camouflage netting is definitely a must have for anyone camping, hunting, or just wanting to conceal a mess in the backyard. The ease of use and versatility make it an excellent choice to handle any last minute changes, and can be quickly deployed in just about any situation with ease, and not making much noise at all.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just because you’re using a tarp with a camouflaged pattern on it doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re going off on a secret armymission or that you’re trying to hide something – you might just prefer a tarp that blends into its surroundings. One of the problemswith the traditional blue style tarp is that it sticks out like a sore thumb when placed against a natural backdrop (which theyfrequently are).Tarps are often used to cover items (and sometimes people) outside from the weather (particularly the rain). For this reason, it’s important that any camo tarp that you buy has a waterproof coating on both sides.</p>
<p>So what might you use a tarp for? Supposing you’re working on a project outside (maybe you’re making a workshop or a shed) andyou have a large pile of wood that you’re using. You’d obviously want to protect this wood from the rain (since the rain can ruin it) for a tarp is the perfect things to cover it up when you’re not using it (make sure to weigh the tarp down at each end, however, so it doesn’t blow away).</p>
<p>Another time when you might want to use camo tarps are when you’re keeping valuable items (such as a motorbike) outside. Many people have a limited amount of garage space these days, so sometimes it’s not always possible to keep bikes inside. In this situation a tarp is the perfect thing to protect it from the elements.</p>
<p>Camo tarps were primarily invented for the military since they allow you to conceal yourself and other objects in wooded areas. For this reason they are also pretty useful for hunters, since they can hide themselves and their equipment as they lie in wait for their prey.(see also <a href="http://camotarps.org/camo-netting/">camo netting</a> )</p>
<p>The standard tarp is made from polyethylene, which is an extremely light and durable material. It’s important to note that not allcamo tarps are the same in terms of quality, and that some will last longer than others. This difference in quality is usually indicated by a difference in price.</p>
<p>It’s also important to note that tarps come in different sizes. The three standard sizes that you’ll see are 6&#215;8 foot, 9&#215;12 foot and18x12 foot.  These sizes are fairly universal, although you can sometimes get custom sizes made to order from specialists. The best places to buy camo tarps from are army surplus shops. Although most DIY shops do sell tarps, they usually only sell the typical blue ones and not the camouflaged ones. Another place to buy them from is online, since there are now several online stores dedicated to selling this kind of thing.</p>
