Product Description
The ThermaCELL Patio Lantern operates on a single butane cartridge, which heats a mat releasing allethrin, a synthetic copy of a natural insecticide found in pyrethrum flowers, creating a 15 x 15 foot comfort zone. Each repellent mat provides up to four hours of protection and each butane cartridge provides up to 12 hours of operation. Perfect for backyards, decks, picnics, barbeques, camping, and outdoor parties. ThermaCELL technology has been tested and approved by the U.S. Army. Currently used in Iraq, Kuwait and Afghanistan. An effective alternative to smelly lotions and sprays which must be applied to the skin. Easy to use: no open flame; no messy wax.

Customer Reviews
I think that like applied repellants, what works for some types of mosquitoes will not work for other types. Unlike the reviewer above, we had better luck with this lantern than the Off brand. The Thermacell brand uses Allethrin, which is not toxic to mammals, but will bother any near by fish. We have both water and woods in our development and have constant bitting from 4:30 pm onwards. We bought two of these and put them out on our deck for a party. People were out on the deck from 4 - 11 pm, and only a few bites in the middle when the pad ran out. I gave it 4 stars, only because of the expense of the refills.
We bought this for our patio and we live less than a mile of a lake so we have a major mosquitoe problem. We've been using for about 2 months and have been very happy with the results. We just purchased a 2nd one for my parents, they live on the lake.
