Each battery refill lasts for about 12-hours — as soon as protection fades, pop a replacement cartridge in, and you’ll be back to enjoying your bug-free bliss!
Promising review: “I have a beautiful wraparound porch on my property located between a small pond and an 80,000 acre wildlife reserve in Central Florida. However, I’ve only been able to use it a few days a year because the mosquitoes around me are voracious. I hate spraying repellents, and bug zappers are just disgusting. It’s always just easier to go inside. But then I read a Wirecutter review of this device and decided to try it. Wow!!! It works! Now I can sit on my porch for hours without a single bug bite. Last week I re-read Carl Hiaasen’s novel Squeeze Me on the porch from like 2 to 9 pm (it’s that good a book, but that’s what one expects from Carl) with no bug attacks. In that time I saw walk by a flock of sand hill cranes, a rare Sherman Fox squirrel, and two young male deer. And I finished the book. I am a believer—I love this stuff! So much cheaper than screening the porch!” —Susan D.
