Do they really work?  been thinking of trying something fancy instead of the spray on stuff

I have the lantern and the belt pack.  I like them.

If you use a latern, you probably want to set it up wind of yourself.

Yep, it works.  Just be sure you start it up a few minutes before you want to use it.  I start it up when I get out of the truck and when I get to my deer stand it's producing a nice fog, and you can watch the mosquitoes clearing out.

It actually makes a fog? I thought it was some sort of invisible type thing. How does it work anyway? Has anyone used it for fishing?

Yep they work I use it when I'm hunting and on the boat when I'm night fishing to keep those annoying little buggers away from me.

They work fine if you stay in one place so the protective "fog" will be around you. If you are fishing in a boat and moving, they are worthless. To operate properly it has to lay flat and not upright in the holster on your belt. If there is a lot of air movement (wind) they are worthless also. I got one with a camo holster, you want it? I used it twice when fishing at night, the mosquitos were not impressed at all.

Hmm, makes sense on the wind issue, I Thought it would at least keep up with ya in the boat. Thanks for the info guys

I've used them for hunting and they've done great.
