The best way to beat the bugs is camp somewhere windy, like a mountain top or shore. But both of them bring up different shit like lightning and alligators.
I agree, camping alone the prospect of building a fire and cooking a multi course meal is far from tempting. If there's a group cooking can be a shared thing, a fun thing.
But alone, cookies and corn chips would go well with a good book.
edit: I've got it, you need a Faraday cage, I giant bug zapper you can sit in.
