Abstract: A cargo cover and strap system is provided that uses one tarp with two layers or two separate tarps, where one tarp is made of solid polyethylene waterproof material and the mesh net tarp is made of a woven fabric or woven polyethylene layer. The polyethylene tarp fits around cargo being transported in the bed of pickup truck. The mesh net is layered on top or joined together with the polyethylene tarp. Stretchable and easy-to-attach straps secure the mesh net tarp around the cargo by using a configuration of hooks at one or both ends of the strap for attaching anywhere into the woven mesh net tarp. The combination of mesh net tarp and the straps with hooks allow the mesh net to be pulled taut easily and simply by the straps to cover any configuration of cargo being transported.
