Hey all!

This is my first post on this forum.

Almost anywhere I go, I just sleep out or at the very most, put up a light tarp over me if it's raining.

But one of the places I go to a lot near where I live is just infested with Copperheads, Western Diamondbacks, Scorpions, Brown Recluses, etc. I have woken up with scorpions in my bag and copperheads near my bag before, so I vowed that I should probably not sleep out again out there without some sort of protection.

What I need is a recommendation for some sort of small tent, either 1 or 2 person capacity at most, that is still very "open," ie. you can still see and hear everything and still lets the breeze in, but can keep out snakes and scorpions.

I want to still be able to lay there and look up at the stars or hear the wildlife. I don't want some super heavy duty tent that blocks out noise and nature. Temperature is not a factor for me, obviously.

I need a tent that is lightweight, open and protection from snakes.

Is this do-able for under $100? Anyone got any item or product suggestions?

Thanks!
