Thermacell

Someone told me I shouldn't cut the Thermacell down, because it DOES WORK here in the U.S.A., well, maybe I'm old fashion, I tell it like it is, if it doesn't work North of the border, they( Thermacell) should have said " works in the U.S. Woods ONLY!" then I wouldn't have had a bad experience up in Quebec. Last time I looked a mosiquto is a mosiquto (didn't work North of the Border)
biting insects, as advertized (Wouldn't black flies and No-See-Ums, classify as biting insects ?)

Anyway I put my faith in Deet, good headnet, and Duct tape !

It didn't work for me in Senneterre, Quebec, also have three other individuals who can testify to it's not working. The butane was working, the mat was heated , but the bugs(mosiqutos, black flies, no-see-ums) kept on coming. As I said , it didn't work while I was hunting, and later, to give it a fair shake, it didn't work for the 4 of us(our hunting party) sitting on a small porch, trying to have a drink, finally giving up and going inside. I got as much use out of it as teats on a boar hog !

It without a doubt worked for me in Kentucky. However, we don't have near the bug problem they do up north. I won't go in the woods without it.
