Q: Is the repellent safe for pollinators?

submitted by Skate - 2 months ago
  • A: The US EPA and WHO have concluded that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to bees or other terrestrial wildlife if using the product according to label instructions. The mosquito repellent vapors produced by our product rapidly disseminate in the air and little of the repellent ingredient falls on surfaces such as surrounding foliage where bees might land. Our mosquito products are also most often used in the evening when bees are returning to their nest (also true of butterflies and other foraging insects). If you raise bees, avoid using repellent in the immediate vicinity of the bee hives.

    Totally worthless device. I got it charged & everything was working as it was supposed to. Then I took the device outside & placed it within 3 feet of where I was. Did not faze the mosquitoes one bit. They were all over me instantly & additional time did not improve the situation. I gave up & tried the device the next 3 evenings with no better success. This was a TOTAL FAIL! Will be returning this week.

    Used these on a trip to Alaska. The Thermacell was the first thing unpacked and turned on went setting up camp, and the last thing packed when breaking down camp. No problems with mosquitoes for the entire trip. Thank you!!!! We turned one on even when stopped on the side of the road for rest of lunch.

    My husband can't do any deet or other chemicals to avoid mosquitoes and I stumbled across this last year and now they have updated to rechargeable units. These are amazing and they really do work! He can enjoy sitting outside anywhere! We have 2 and take them everywhere we may go to be outside.

    I moved to New Mexico from Massachusetts, thinking I was saying goodbye forever to mosquitos. That lasted about 17 years until our climate shifted just enough to allow the tiniest, striped devils to take root in the desert. The past two years have been unbearable! Thankfully, a friend told me about Thermacell, and it's been a life-changer. I set it out and in no time, I'm back to having coffee on the porch, weeding my garden undisturbed, or having friends over on the patio at sunset. I will absolutely be buying additional units for each area and stocking up on refills along with telling everyone about this product. Thank you for giving me my outdoor life back!

    After charging my thermacell like suggested I went to open the cartridge and the cap was very difficult to open. I pulled up on the cartridge lid harder and it came off. Also, in the process the wick was broken. Cannot use this product now as the wick broke smooth off.

    I have used the product and it works well. However the refill does not last 12 hours as advertised. It was empty in less than 6 hours of use. I have purchased a 40 hour refill and I hope it week last 40 hours as advertised. The refills are very expensive. This is a low cost product but it works.

    Really appreciate the repellant functionality, upgraded from the small personal unit that uses the blue wafers, but after one use for a single hour, I shut the unit off and came back the next day to find 2/3 of the fluid had leaked out of the tank in a puddle underneath. Do I need to replace the cap on the wick after each use? Thinking about retuning for refund, can’t afford to lose the expensive fluid at this rate

    I have two of these Thermacell devices and have never had success. At our old house I blamed it on the windy conditions, but at our new place the air is pretty still on the back patio. This device was CHARGED, and on for one hour, new refill, literally sitting one foot from me. The photo shows the mosquito that landed on my leg and would have bit me had I not killed it with my hand, getting blood on me. So much for protection from West Nile virus. Very disappointed.

    Recently purchased. Easy charging and set up. I'm still getting eaten alive. (LOL). I tested it again a few minutes ago (allowed it to "clear" the area for about 20 min.)...this time I sat and held it. I could see the product coming out of the device..I could also see mosquitoes landing on my arm...I'll keep using...but not sure I'll purchase a refill.
