mosquito bands
« on: July 09, 2011, 10:43:00 AM »
Has anybody used the repellent impregnated braclets that they sell in wal mart and on TV. I am skeptical. I havent found anything yet that works as good as a thermacell

mosquitos gor for the carbon dioxide and some chemicals coming out of your skin. Repellant covers your skin and blocks the dispersal, thats how they work so a band will do nothing.

But Rob, I guess the question now is, if you could get them to stay on the mosquito's neck, would they work?   :laughing:
