The author includes these details after describing the results from his gauge to emphasize the severity of the mosquito situation. By mentioning that even Jarvis, Preble, and the natives are wearing face protectors, and that the Major has borrowed Preble's closed net, it shows that the mosquitoes are causing significant discomfort to everyone in the camp. The fact that Preble is discomfited by the Major borrowing his closed net suggests that the demand for protection from mosquitoes is so high that people are willing to share limited resources. This further highlights the intensity of the mosquito problem and reinforces the idea that the mosquitoes are a significant nuisance and threat in the area.

It shows a sense of accomplishment on Enrique's end that he has yet lived another day after going through several challenges on his journey.
