ThermacellMosquito Repellent Refills; Compatible with Thermacell Backpacker; Highly Effective, Long Lasting, No Spray, Scent, or Mess; 15 Foot Zone of Mosquito Protection

This review is for the refill pads only.I insert the refill pad into the Thermacell Backpacker or into the Thermacell Portable Repeller and as soon as it heats up it becomes very effective!I live in Alaska. One of the jokes around here is that the mosquito is our state bird. My property backs up to a wetland (swampy area) and is the prime breeding ground for mosquitoes. Once we hit mid June, it is impossible to work outside or even enjoy time on the deck. If I insert the refill pad into the Thermacell Backpacker or into the Thermacell Portable Repeller, I wait a very short time and I can actually enjoy being outside. Keep in mind, the area that is cleared of mosquitoes is about a 12-15 foot circumference. So, if you are moving around your area, you may want more than one of these fired up.

We use a lot of ziplock bags and these are great for the price. I've never had any issues with sealing them or with any tears. You get a lot for the money and are just as good as the name brand. They are a staple in our house!

More product to fuel longer camping trips. I love this product and highly recommend it over using other, more scammy repellants that either don't work at all or cause other issues like making you taste bad to your partner while camping, or harming friendly bugs and animals with really harmful chemicals you/they can breathe in or get on their skin.This product doesn't have any of that. It's smokeless, silent running, light and compact. It even uses only a small amount of resources to run. One small canister of ISO gas lasted a week long trip.These pads only last about 4 hours which is fine, but make sure you keep it covered from rain. If the lads get even a small amount of rain water on them, it lowers the efficacy and run time. I had to use the product in very wet, windy and stormy environment, and it still performed well. I learned quickly what happens when the lad gets wet, and has to adjust accordingly. That was my fault, misusing the product in more austier environments, but even with the wind and rain, the mosquitoes tried to hang out with us in a swarm. It's like they did even care about the wind or rain, they just wanted to eat us as we huddled under a tarp trying to cook some of our camping food. I turned on this puppy and the mosquitoes made themselves scarce. Even with the wind and rain, the area of effect wasn't too diminished even with the pad getting some rain on it. I did have to change the pad out, but learned from the mistake. Highly recommend. I hope this helps!

Would give 5 stars but it takes 15 min to begin working, and the inserts don’t last very long.

Works great! Learn how to recharge the canisters and you'll save a ton of money

A single mat is a perfect fit for the Nitecore EMR10.

Work as intended.

I like this product. No Odor
