Cotton Mosquito Net Box – King Cal King Bed | Machine Washable | 4 Openings

Cotton Mosquito Net Box for King & California King Beds

A deluxe natural cotton box net with four openings — our most popular net, and the quality luxury resorts have chosen since 1999. The structured box shape creates a four-poster canopy effect over any bed, transforming the room while giving complete insect protection from mosquitoes and biting insects when properly installed, sized and sealed, as the openings fall closed and the drapes hang to the floor.

Real woven cotton is soft, breathable and substantial — not the thin synthetic mesh of a cheap net. Where a budget polyester net frays, yellows and tears within a season, a well-cared-for cotton net lasts for years, so it is the better buy over its lifetime and far nicer to sleep under.

Easy Care

Cold-water machine wash on a delicate cycle, cold hand wash, or dry clean. Line dry — do not tumble dry. Warm iron if desired. Cotton netting is a natural product and moves a little when washed; if it loses shape, pull and stretch it back while still damp. Cotton netting may shrink about 5% in height in cold water, and over 10% if washed hot.

King & California King Cotton Mosquito Net — Frequently Asked Questions

Last reviewed: August 2026

What is the King and California King cotton mosquito net made from?

It is made from real natural cotton netting with a run-proof weave — 256 holes per square inch. Unlike thin synthetic polyester or inferior muslin, this is genuine woven cotton: soft, breathable, substantial, and beautiful enough to double as a bedroom canopy. It comes in natural warm white.

What color is the cotton mosquito net, and can it be dyed?

It comes in natural warm white only. Because it is real cotton, it takes home dye well if you would like a different shade — use a washing-machine dye in warm (not hot) water, remembering that cotton can shrink around 5% if the water is too warm. Polyester nets, by contrast, can only be dyed to a light shade.

Does the cotton mosquito net keep mosquitoes out?

Yes — it gives complete protection from mosquitoes and biting insects when properly installed, sized and sealed. The box shape has four openings that fall closed, a 28-inch (75 cm) overlap at each opening, and drapes that reach the floor, so there are no gaps. The 256-holes-per-square-inch weave is fine enough to keep biting insects out.

Is the King cotton mosquito net chemically treated?

No — it contains no insecticide, permethrin or chemical treatment of any kind, and it is not flame-retardant treated. It protects purely as a physical barrier of finely woven cotton, which makes it reassuring to sleep under night after night, including for children.

What size bed does the King and California King cotton mosquito net fit?

It fits both a standard King (76" × 80") and a California King (72" × 84"). The net itself measures 79" × 91" with an 86" (220 cm) drop — 200 × 230 cm — and is made "oversize" to cover the mattress and frame. Beds vary, so measure yours first and, if you are between sizes, size up. If your bed is larger than a California King, choose our Super King instead (250 × 230 cm); we also make Single/Twin through Queen.

How do you hang the King cotton box mosquito net?

It suspends from the ceiling in several ways. Each net includes 26 pairs of ceiling ties for attaching to a frame or four-poster bed, plus a sewn ceiling sleeve for a hidden curtain-rod frame. You can also tie it directly to ceiling hooks. For a King bed, four to six ceiling points give the most structured hang. Our DIY videos show the curtain-rod and bamboo-or-wood frame methods step by step.

Can the cotton mosquito net be used as a bed canopy without a four-poster bed?

Yes — it needs no four-poster frame. Hung from ceiling ties, a curtain rod or a bamboo or wood frame, it creates a four-poster canopy effect over any ordinary King bed. Internal and external corner ties let you tie the sides open during the day. Many customers buy it mainly for that decorative effect, with the insect protection as a welcome bonus.

Is the King cotton mosquito net suitable for couples?

Yes — the box shape has four openings, one on each side, so two people sharing a King or California King bed can get in and out independently without disturbing each other or leaving a gap. This is why the box style is the shape we most often recommend for couples.

How do you wash a cotton mosquito net?

It is machine washable — a cold-water delicate cycle, cold hand wash, or dry clean. Line dry and never tumble dry; warm iron if you like. Cotton is a natural product and moves a little when washed, but you can pull it back into shape while it is still damp. Expect about 5% shrinkage in cold water, and over 10% if washed hot, so always wash cold.

How long does a cotton mosquito net last?

With proper care our cotton nets last around ten years — far longer than a thin polyester net that frays, yellows and tears within a season or two. The run-proof weave and reinforced ceiling are built for years of use, which is why luxury resorts choose them and why cotton is the better buy over its lifetime.
