Heading into the outdoors for a camping trip can quickly become unbearable if there are too many mosquitos and flies around, so the Thermacell Backpacker Mosquito Repellers are intended to provide an effective solution. Capable of offering a 15 x 15 foot protection zone, the device works by being attached onto a iso-butane canister that is often kept around for cooking on stoves. By simply affixing the device onto the canister and pressing the on button, the system will spring to action to provide up to 90 hours of protection against mosquitos on a four ounce can.
The Thermacell Backpacker Mosquito Repellers are ideal for use by campers, hikers or those heading out for a relaxing picnic in the park.
