Thermacell Mosquito Repellent Refill

I absolutely love this product! I was skeptical at first because I've tried so many products, but I was very impressed with this. We are surrounded by woods and have a hard time keeping mosquito's at bay even with profession sprays. This worked perfectly. Not a single bite after being outside for hours. The only down side I found was that you only get one container of fluid with your purchase and if you're outside a lot, you go through it pretty quickly. Other than that, I loved the product!!

I purchased a thermacell patio shield mosquito repellent and 3 days of use it really works great. The only negative comment I have is trying to see the glowing orange light on the canister to verify it’s lit. I am only seeing a little pin point orange light very difficult to see. So I contacted thermacell customer service see the next day to ask them about this condition. The individual to talked to didn’t seem knowledgeable of the problem that I was encountering and said if I wasn’t satisfied I should return the item back to Lowe’s. Well since I didn’t have a store receipt or original packaging I can’t return it. I am hopeful thermacell can assist me further.

I recently purchased a pair of Thermacell (Real Tree Camo & Holsters) devices and enough refills (2 - 4/12 Packs) to last my recent fishing trip. I had contacted Thermacell and shared my plan to have one strapped to each of the pedestal seats (fore and aft) of my 17ft Bass Boat. We never needed them until we finally decided to fish at night. As dusk came, so did the mosquitoes. We ignited or devices. No Good initially! We resorted to DEET. However, in about 10 to 15 minutes, the mosquitoes were not even hanging around. Something we never experienced with DEET alone. We could clearly smell the Citronella-like Odor of the Thermacell devices. I firmly believe that once they kicked in, they were effective. BUT WAIT… we were only there about one more hour. We called it a ... MoreI recently purchased a pair of Thermacell (Real Tree Camo & Holsters) devices and enough refills (2 - 4/12 Packs) to last my recent fishing trip.

BUT WAIT… we were only there about one more hour. We called it a night and went in. The next night we ignited early in anticipation of the approach of mosquitoes, using the SAME PADS which only had about 90 minutes of burn time on them. They were still BLUE! We never could sense the same Citronella-like Odor? As the mosquitoes eventually hit, again we had to resort to DEET! My evaluation thus far is this. 1. For effective use, you MUST LIGHT UP EARLY with FRESH PADS! 2. USED PADS (even if still BLUE) the next night ARE NOT EFFECTIVE! Have DEET on hand as a backup. I will give them one more try on our next trip. We’ll see!
