As an alternative to the many insect repellent products on the market that are designed to be applied topically, MosquitNo developed a silicone bracelet that's able to ward off insects simply by being worn around the wrist. The bracelet band is made from a specially developed silicone that's able to absorb citronella oil and gradually have it evaporate. In total, there's about 72 hours of protection in each water-resistant bracelet.
The one-size-fits-all bracelets are adjustable and are sold in multi-packs, which makes them extremely useful for outdoor family adventures or group camping trips. This non-invasive, non-liquid insect repellent solution is ideal for kids and adults who want to avoid the mess that can comes with lotions, sprays and other products.
MosquitNo also makes braided Nano Tech Bracelets that provide more long-lasting protection.
