How it Works

Watch this video to find out how it works…

Leave Mosquito Bites In The Past

I spent my childhood summers and long weekends in the interior of British Columbia in a cabin by a fishing lake… basically “Mosquito Country”.

I’ll always remember the stickiness and the horrible smell of the mosquito spray that my mom layered on us. If only we’d had ThermaCELL back then!

Mosquitoes in the 70s Campfire

(This photo was taken about 1979 at our cabin. That’s Janice in the red coat, and I’m the other twin in the blue. We’re with our mom, brother and sister. Our father was taking the photo.)

    Here in the mountains of North Carolina, mosquitoes start showing up around June and they are everywhere! The worst time of the day is around sunset and dusk. We use tiki torches when we sit on the deck and wear long sleeves, thankfully, it does get much cooler at night. 🙂

    We get the most mosquitoes in our back yard. Our yard backs up against what used to be an empty lot. There was a duplex built on part of it, but they don’t always keep the grass and brush cut down bordering on our lot. Too many places for mosquitoes to breed and hide there.

    All I have to do is walk outside to get attacked no matter what time of day it is. I know this is unrealistic, but, I think if mosquitoes had telepathy, a loud call into the wild (or cell phones (ha-ha)), they communicate to each other that the target has appeared and its time to attack.

    The question for me should be ‘When and where do mosquitoes NOT bother you the most?’! Seriously, they love me. If I even step out of the house to get meat off the grill, I get a bite. No one else will get one bite and I will get 12 just sitting outside for an hour on the patio. So this year I vowed to try even harder to make them go away. I use essential oils, mosquito spray, and take odorless garlic pills twice a day. So far this summer, I have only had 3 bites!
