The Thermacell Backpacker Mat-Only Refill 48-Hour Pack effectively repels mosquitoes by creating a 4.5 meter zone of protection when used with the Thermacell MR-BP Backpacker Mosquito Repeller. This does not include fuel cartridges. Utilizing the same camping gas canisters (not included) that backpackers and campers have in their bag already, the compact and lightweight Backpacker Repeller is an essential piece of gear. It’s also ideal for use while fishing, gardening, hunting, around the backyard, and more. Heat produced by the camping gas canister is directed to a small mat infused with the repellent Allethrin, a synthetic version of a naturally occurring repellent found in chrysanthemum flowers. Heat disperses the repellent creating the 4.5 meter zone of protection. Thermacell protects millions of people from mosquitoes with no messy sprays or lotions, no scent, no noise, no DEET, and no open flames. For best results, use on days with light or no wind (bugs are at their worst on these days), and allow 10-15 minutes to form a complete zone of protection around the unit. Dependable performance over 2100 meters of elevation. Thermacell products are safe, effective, and come with a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. With Thermacell, Turn it on… Mosquitoes Gone!
