Description states "breathable sides". Is it the microscopic "holes" or something that tiny bugs could get through? Bug phobic here........

Since I bought the bag a while ago, all I can remember is that eventually the side split open but that may have been because I packed it too full. I live in FL and never found any bugs inside. The primary reason I bought this item, was to keep moths out of my sweaters, and it did very well at that.

This bag only has the opening for a hangar. The breathable bags are essential for some fabrics and all furs. They need air, but moths can't get in. Hope this helps!

The instructions said that it's because: when the bugs get zapped particles of the bugs get shot out of the vents. To prevent inhalation its best to keep it away from the house.

I never had problems with bugs coming in. It's not an air tight seal, but they way vents to the window you can leave the screen on, so no bugs when I used it. In fact the way it connects to the window for venting was the one thing I didn't have a problem with.

Not a hole (like under the nose) but little holes for ventilation I believe

I personally haven't had a problem with bugs in Swheat Scoop. I have had them in some alfalfa reptile bedding, though. So what I do now, with any organic product like this, is open the bag outdoors, well away from any entrance to the house. If there are any bugs, they should be pretty obvious

I don't know ......the mesh netting is small holes, but I have no idea how small of a hole a mosquitoe can fit through.........never thought of it really

No idea. The material seems breathable (what?), but I've just bought it recently.

I don't think it's bug proof......bug deterrent maybe. It's a poly-type put-together so the seams & lid are not sealed.We do love it though....very large & looks nice :)

There is netting that is on all four sides. If it is warm you can roll up the separate cover or just crack the bottom. There are two separate zippers per window/opening and netting. I experienced no bugs in side the tent. Hope this helps.

Yes, it is designed to keep bugs, like moths, out. It is even cedar-lined. There are no holes after zippered up. There are three (3) zippers - 1 vertical & 2 horizontal that meet at the very top. Because they are three individual zippers, they do not meet for a complete seal. However, there is a cloth flap that covers the top opening so it protects/covers up that slight opening.

It will not keep out insects if off and bugs like the stink bugs or lady bugs will get into it while running and when turned off they come on in. So if insects are an issue I would consider something different. The side you dont see if like any other window fan all the way across not just the circular portion as seen on the front. Also hard to clean on both sides. Other than those issues the other features are great.

The material is not breathable. Our 4 month-old rolled on to the side, made a noise and I went to check. She could not breath through the fabric. We complained to baby bjorn and they issued a full refund. We use the lotus travel crib now as they were smart enough to find the easy solution; have the mesh extend all the way to the floor.

They are regular zippers so there are naturally some small spaces where the zippers come together in the top middle. There are also very tiny holes where the hangers come through on top. But I think it will serve decent protection against moths, which is why I bought it.

Yes other reviewers are correct, there are small holes in this bag. I can't give an exact answer as I'm not a medical professional but I would think it should give some protection. Bed bugs have to be brought in from an outside source so if you are storing a mattress and don't already have bed bugs you should be safe. If you do currently have bed bugs I would not trust this bag and I would consult an exterminator who knows what they're doing.

The panels that actually surround the tent or solid fabric they don't really let in a lot of breeze but it does keep the bugs out what I did was by sheer curtains and put that up as well cheap fix from the dollar store good luck

Yes. Both side are a see-through mesh material that are very ventilated. Even the other sides are fairly thin.
