Are suns rays effective under a mosquito net (vitamin D question) ?

[Bansaw]

I am planning to get a mosqutio net and sit under it to absorb some sunlight as a way of getting more vitamin D.
(I'm not fond of the many flies and wasps we have here so this net will help).

But, do the suns rays penetrate well enough to allow me to get what I need for vitamin D generation, or does the mosquito net material shield out too much?

 

[Wishful]

I doubt that it will block much. Look at the area of the spaces compared to the thickness of the fibres.

The netting I get for gardening states the UV penetration. It varies, but it's quite high. The manufacturer of your mosquito net would probably know the rating of their material.
