A mosquito repellent is any product that can prevent mosquitoes from getting close to you.There are some repellents that can kill mosquitoes even before they come near to you.
Mosquito repellents come in many forms: lotion, creams, liquids, spray, towelettes, wristbands, incense or repellent device.
Portable Mosquito Repellent Device
This electric mosquito repellent emits a repellent scent that is harmless and odorless to humans but deadly for mosquitoes. We like the portability that the Thermacell Mr3F Portable Mosquito Repellent Device offer, at only 8 ounces you can carry this with you to keep you protected for 12 hours! If you would prefer to keep the whole campsite protected, then we recommend the Thermacell Backpacker Mosquito Repeller that offers 16 hours protected within its 15-foot zone.
Insect Repellent Wristbands
Wristbands that repel mosquitoes are usually made from citronella. Citronella is an essential oil that can be used pure or mixed. Though their effectiveness has never been proven there are a lot of users who believe in a more natural way of repelling insects. Their protection time with the dermally applied products is very low, it is considered to be between 30 minutes and 2 hours. Check out the Buggy Mosquito Bracelet that offers 15 hours of protection that can be used by adults, kids and even your pets.
Mosquito Net
Mosquito nets are sometimes preferred by mothers to protect small children from mosquitoes. Though mosquito nets are not always ideal while traveling, they are still one of the most effective way to keep mosquito away.
