These don't work. Tried one for the past year with fresh batteries/pads each use, literally had it between my wife and I when hanging in socal patio and still go destroyed by mosquitos etc
Same here
If you find you need these very frequently, one suggestion is to get the Thermacell Backpacker Mosquito Repeller that can fit on a regular propane tank and use the hack on YouTube to recycle/re-use your pads.

These types of repellents do work but only with little to no wind - if there is even a little wind, you may be better off using mosquito repellent body/clothing sprays

Zapper has been proven time and again to zap the wrong kind of insects and not the biting mosquitoes

But I agree with your other statement. It even says not to use near food
where does it say that?

Quote from shawnsavickus :
These actually do work... Is suggest getting the smaller 15' one though... It looks as though they've made this bigger one so you can't refill it on your own..

Why does the size matter when refilling ?

Meh...
Classified by the EPA as a potential carcinogen.
Metofluthrin, like other pyrethroids, is neurotoxic in rats, rabbits, and dogs.
Per Cananda PMRA, "Metofluthrin is highly toxic to aquatic invertebrates, fish, and bees. But the exposure of these nontarget organisms to metofluthrin is, however, unlikely based on the use pattern."
Personally I would not use this.

This model doesn't use pads.

You're thinking of a different model.

This uses oil and, for us, we let it run for 20 min before we go outside and it works pretty good.

Like others mentioned, you don't want to be in a windy area.

I saw at Costco in Columbia, MD selling $15 plus 40 hours refill. That's awesome price, thought.

We have been using this model all year in NC and it has worked great. Turn it on 5-10 minutes before you go out and it should be clear.

Also like a previous poster said. If there is a strong wind it will be less effective.

Is metofluthrin toxic to dogs?
Metofluthrin, like other pyrethroids, is neurotoxic in rats, rabbits, and dogs; both sexes were equally sensitive to metofluthrin. Clinical signs include tremor (all species), vomiting (dog only), and increased salivation (rats and dogs).


It's worse for cats.


You must assume it's not good for humans, as the risk is not worth the gain

Thank you for the excerpt.

I am not disputing anything you have said but want to see this in perspective.

- Canadian health authorities do not advise against using this product, even imply it is ok to use it.

- is this chemical toxic the same way deet is toxic? More? Less? Many many people use deet as you likely know.

- the question is balancing between health risks and convenience, even health benefits of avoiding mosquitos.

- in a more perfect world I would like to assume that if us gov allowed the sale of this device that it is ok to use it. The gov does not even warm against this device the same way they warn against say smoking cigarettes.

Again thanks for the response.
