The mat inflator has worked well so I'll give it a whirl if you can get bug free camping....

Its not really clear how it works or how long a pad lasts. You thinking of attaching it to a dynamo hub and your bike? ( not sure if that is sarcasm or a real question)

Nah, for camp - in fact more likely when camping off the motorbike where I tend to spend more time lazing around on a campsite.
That said, I had a couple of mosquito horrors in 2022 so I might take it with me on certain bike trips also.

I'm not worried for midges, but for the ticks this stuff works

Smidge works for ticks as well, according to the reading matter.
