Origins of Hammocks
Hammocks were developed by the native inhabitants of the Americas for sleeping. By suspending beds above ground, inhabitants were better protected from biting and stinging animals which helped prevent disease transmission and injury from these sources. Hammocks have also been used on naval vessels due to the limited space available. The hammocks allowed the resting or sleeping sailors to move in concert with the motion of the vessels. It's also more comfortable than a bunk or a berth.

Reduce Animal Damage
Rodents may try to collect material from hammocks for their nests or as food. There are several techniques to reduce or avoid damage to a hammock. First, assemble the hammock away from trees by mounting the hammock on a stand or building a structure to support the hammock far away from trees. You can hang a wind chime nearby to prevent or distract rodents from foraging near the hammock. You may also elect to store it when not in use.
To discourage animal damage, you can place strong-smelling aromas near the hammock such as a rag soaked in cider vinegar, ammonia, lavender, mothballs or oil of mustard. Assemble lights or play music near the hammock to minimize rodent foraging nearby. Use commercial deterrent sprays in the area or use a homemade solution of 1 Tbsp. of pepper sauce mixed with 1 qt. of water in a spray bottle.

Quality Materials
Our hammocks are hand woven from 3 ply twisted polyester cord (3 strands twisted into one cord) which is very strong and resistant to the outdoor elements. Our polyester cord typically lasts 5 - 10 times as long as similar cotton hammocks. The cord type, the number of strands and the thickness of each strand contributes to the cord's strength, stretch and durability.
Our 3 ply twisted polyester cord (end cords) used to connect the Caribbean Jumbo Hammock bed to the metal end rings are about 1/4 inch wide. We utilize 26 end cords in our Caribbean Jumbo Hammocks, 22 end cords in our Caribbean Double Hammocks, and 20 end cords in our Caribbean Rope Hammocks. The 3 ply twisted end cords contribute greatly to the balance and strength of the hammock. The quantity of end cords utilized in the design contributes directly to the weight distribution and weight capacity of the hammock. Our Caribbean Jumbo Hammock design with 26 end cords provides a more even weight distribution and higher weight capacity than hammocks with less end cords. The tight weave pattern in the Caribbean Jumbo Hammocks provides evenly distributed support and comfort.
The Siberian Larch wood used in the wood hammock stand is very unappealing to insects. The resins and chemical deposits in the Siberian Larch wood act as a natural antiseptic which deters insect damage. The Siberian Larch wood also contains extractives that are toxic to decaying fungi. Therefore, the Siberian Larch wood stand is highly resistant to decay and rot.
Our spreader bars are real hardwood with a large diameter for strength and stability. The wood spreader bars are turned, hand sanded and then coated with marine spa varnish to seal and protect them from the elements. The high gloss varnish is a dark walnut color.
Our stainless steel metal end rings are designed for safe and secure hanging. They are strong and have superior rust resistance properties. They have a heavy gauge with a large diameter.
