I did not use a bug net at all, although I was carrying one. I have some friends who did the JMT a couple years back, early June and they said the bugs were terrible. I guess I got lucky.

I used 3/4 of a bottle for the whole trip. At higher elevations, mosquitos become less of a problem. I recommend you get something that is deet free. Deet has a tendency to eat/melt through your camping gear.
I had blue skies and sunshine everyday, but as soon as that sun dips down behind a mountain it becomes cold, really, really fast. I don't know the exact temperatures, but some places were below 50F/10C for sure. We had frost on our tents some mornings. I had my Patagonia R3 and Nano Puff with me, wore both of them together on plenty of occasions.
Ascending Mt. Whitney at 3am was surprisingly warm, I was in a tshirt and pants until half way up.
As a side note, myself and the guys on my crew use Repel lemon eucalyptus on ourselves and gear with good results. Link
