Title: For those who camp and other outdoor stuff
Post by: Kawa3 on January 12, 2005, 03:34:50 PM
If you havent tried a thermacell yet and hate them pesky skeeters I would recamend getting one. Our whole hunting camp has them and most wont even hunt if they dont have it that weekend that is how much it helps.But just letting you know about them before yah head up to rodman or any other riding areas that you camp at and stuff

Do you own stock in the company?

lol...its a thing that uses beutane and a little pad and it heats up and keeps skeeters away from yah...i think its a 15ft radius
dont think they have stock. But its really useful in the woods and stuff. You cna buy refills at wal mart most of the time and mabye the thermacell itself im not for sure. We got ours at bass pro

Ya know,I thought I was prepared and thought of EVERYTHING,but mosquitos didn't even cross my mind . It's like clock work,every time the sun goes down they swarm you and then everyone breaks out the OFF or skin so soft and by that time it's to late,the girls are miserable and complaining. The guys usually are on there way to getting tanked so we just drink more and more until we dont notice anymore that we are getting eatin alive. It would be nice to stop them pesky bloodsuckers before they start. THANKS Kawa3!!!!!!

My dad and I have them, they work great, but not when the wind is blowing. It blows the scent away.

Deer cain't smell it. In Ga. it's very hard to see a deer unless there in the rut. That's where we hunt also, haven't seen a deer out of the rut yet.
