Great for the human mosquito attractor
Ok. So I got this out of desperation. We live in the panhandle of Florida where the humidity and warm temps means mosquitos are abundant. I get eaten alive while my happy-go-lucky husband avoids all bites. He scoffed when I ordered this saying it wouldn’t work but guess who was WRONG?! Yep. This thing works MIRACLES y’all! Freaking MIRACLES. I let it warm up for a good 5-10 min and it works amazingly. When I’ve left it warm up I have received ZERO bites within that 10-15 foot radius, which is perfect for our deck. So after 2 weeks here are the pros and the cons because everything has a con.
Pros: repeals mosquitos crazy well, has a slight pleasant smell, it’s cute, no open flames, easy to operate, easy to install new repellant mats, affordable replacement mats, ease of ordering replacement butane.
Cons: I’m on my second mat (they say they last 12 hours which has been more like 10ish for us), the butane already ran out (it comes with one butane cartridge for fuel but after my second mat it’s run out).
Bottom line, BUY THIS and BUY EXTRA butane and cartridges so you don’t run out!!
