kajun Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 hey all, just got my jacuzzi j-245 last week and loving it so far. only problem is now that it's warming up outside, it's really only suitable to use when the sun has set or is setting. the wife and i went in last night around 1015. within half an hour, we had easily 2 dozen or more bugs in the water floating / swimming around. not sure what to do about it aside from maybe not using it when it's dark outside (which would suck). aside from the obvious, keep the tub covered when not in use and put up an enclosure, does anyone have any suggestions on how to keep bugs away / out of the water?? not sure if maybe a bug zapper closeby would be a good idea.....

spatech (the unreal one) Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Tell your wife bugs are attracted to lights and bathings suits so its recommended both be off while tubbing at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kajun Posted June 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 screen tent.. http://www.summitcam...x10incawis.html i was thinking something like this actually. incidentally if i keep the in tub lights off (as suggested earlier) it keeps the bugs to a minimum. also put up a bug zapper. that thing keeps busy, man.
