There really are a lot of options.

I use a Tigoat bivy with the net hood and the netting as a tie off loop. So you simply set up your tarp and tie a piece of line from the netting hoop to the tarp pole and there you go-- a fully bug-proof, waterproof, lightweight shelter.

In fact most bivies are like this since a bug proof net that lies on your skin isn't much use.
