Costume encephalitic: photo and pattern

With the onset of spring mites in the forests lead an active life. However, the period from the beginning of May to the end of June should not restrict lovers of active rest in the desire for the whole family to go camping. Do not wait for autumn, but simply protect yourself from the unpleasant and dangerous attack of insects. Take on board our advice, sew an encephalitis suit with your own hands or get ready.

Aware, therefore, armed

So, in order to be fully armed, you need to know not only the periods of activity and habitat of ticks, but also to learn their habits. Now there is no need to study fat scientific volumes on biology, since people are engaged in the study of encephalitic insects for a long time, and some - and in the nature of their professional activities. Ideal protection in the forest can be made specially designed for Soviet geologists suit encephalitis.

The USSR is the country in which the leading narrow-profile developers of the time worked. They created many effective protective things, which have no analogues in the world to this day. This costume quickly migrated as a hiking pattern to hunters, mushroom pickers, fishermen and even the military. Especially popular was the top part of the apparel - an anorak jacket with special traps.

Sewing on the basis of a children's model

For beginners tailors it will be easier to sew a children's model. The pattern of encephalitic costume, which is shown as an illustration in our publication, can be successfully modified if desired, and for an adult. Materials from which it is possible to sew such a model are cloaks and kapron of different densities. However, the most effective in terms of environmental friendliness, and in terms of protection is a thin cotton tarpaulin.

For sure in the home bins there are pieces of cloth from previous suits or old, leaky in some places camp clothes that can serve as the basis for a new one. What are the features of an encephalitis suit?

Materials and features of elements

The piece of fabric that we need for sewing must have a width of 90 cm and a length of 4 meters. In specialized workshops such fabrics are sold. In any case, the product sewn by hand, will cost much cheaper than the finished protective children's suit. Also for sewing you need a lightning length of 40 cm and ordinary nylon thread in the color of the fabric. The costume encephalitic, which is sewn from cotton tarpaulin, is pleasant to the body and allows the skin to breathe even in conditions of elevated temperatures. Using our pattern, it is necessary to take into account that all dimensions are given without allowances for seams. Before you start on the drawing of parts, remove from the young model of measurement.

Raglan sleeves are the optimal variant of a suit when one does not want to perform many complex joint seams. In addition, a mite that fell on its potential victim from a tree should have as few hooks as possible in the form of seams on the shoulders. In our case, the insect can simply roll down onto the grass, like drops of a sudden rain.

For the cuff will need a wide or double dense elastic. The areas of the wrist should be tightly surrounded by a cloth. In our suit, there is always a hood, as well as special inserts in the form of a skirt-trap and traps on the trousers.

Constructive nuances

This is where we will need the knowledge of previous generations, scrupulously studying the habits of dangerous insects. On the basis of this knowledge, a modern costume is encephalitic ("Stalker"). So, mites often can penetrate the human body from below, getting on the shoes, and then crawling under the pant leg. This feature of habits of insects, we do not take into account when designing a suit. Just suggest to tuck the bottom of the pants into dense cotton socks, thereby completely blocking the tick from accessing the skin from below.

Similarly, the insect behaves and crawls up the leg: the mite is looking for a free edge of clothes, under which it desperately tries to get through. In addition, it is easier for a dangerous insect to creep directly onto the pant leg from a tall grass, rather than on a shoe, so a person needs to be on guard and protect himself from penetration of the parasite onto the skin. That is why the encephalitis suit (photos of models you see as visual illustrations) is equipped with several levels of protection against penetration of the parasite in the region of the waist, wrists and ankles.

The very first defensive trap is located in the lower part of the pants and is able to lure the insect under the sewn-out fraudulent insert. But the second trap imitates the free edge of the jacket. On the back of the trap on the jacket, you can sew a bright woolen strip, so that the insects that got into the deceptive network could be more easily detected and destroyed in a timely manner.

Costume encephalitic: how to further protect yourself?

During each trip to the forest, the suit must be treated with special anti-malignant aerosols. Special attention should be paid to places of potential accumulation of insects - traps.

Additional features of models

We offered your attention the simplest in performance, but from this is not losing its effectiveness pattern of encephalitic costume. However, on the market there are models with different features, which can also be transferred to a tailored protective suit if desired. So, for example, pants can also be supplied with cuffs that are tightly fitted with elastic bands. Insert the elastic band into the bottom edge of the jacket. At the edge of the hood make a hole for the braid, so that you can tighten the product around the face and prevent the insect from penetrating the neck. By analogy with the absence of seams on the shoulders, vertical seams on the jacket should also be absent. Chest pockets can be provided with false swing valves.

How to choose a ready-made protective suit?

If you do not have any tailor skills, no time, no sewing capabilities, get a ready-made encephalitis suit from a specialized store. "Wolverine" (Krasnoyarsk firm) - this is the brand that produces excellent products, well-established in tourists, hunters and mushroom pickers. Products are sewn on a free cut, which allows you to not hamper the movement of the tourist in the campaign. All elements of the costume are equipped with traps, on the back of which sewn a special fibrous fabric, easily absorbing a pair of aerosol or any other acaricidal agent.

The lower part of the jacket is equipped with a special lining, which is easily tucked into the trousers. Also, the costumes produced by the Krasnoyarsk company are equipped with a mosquito net stretched over the face. Zippers on the side pockets are hidden. Cuffs on trousers and sleeves are easily adjusted by braid to the size of the wrist and ankles. The cost of such a suit in a specialized store is 5,000 rubles on average.

Conclusion

We examined an elementary version of sewing an antiancephalitic costume, learned about the peculiarities of the behavior of insect parasites. Now hikes in the forest, even during the activity of ticks for a trained and knowledgeable person, do not pose any danger. The encephalitis suit will help to protect the family from the tedious procedure of examining each other's skin areas for insect damage.
