ThermaCELL - A revolutionary mosquito and midge repellent being exclusively distributed in the UK by Procter Pest-StopDespite their tiny size, we all know that mosquitoes and midges can at their least ruin a holiday, fishing trip or simply being able to sit out in the garden, to, at their worst, cause serious health problems. In some parts of the UK - e.g. much of Scotland - the problem with midges is so serious that it can actually prevent people going outside at all at certain times of the day.
There's been no-end of products put onto the market in recent years to combat the problem, from sprays, creams and even nets which cover the head. Some of these products have helped the problem, but all have drawbacks and some are arguably ineffective.
But now there's a range of products which finally means that people can work and enjoy leisure activities however bad the mosquito or midge problem is. The range comes from ThermaCELL and Procter Pest-Stop is the exclusive distributor in the UK for all the products.
So how does it work? ThermaCELL uses revolutionary, patented technology to dispense a small amount of repellent into the air over a long period of time. ThermaCELL is powered by a butane cartridge which provides the cordless, portable heat necessary to operate the device (batteries are not needed). It directs the heat to a metal grill. A mat saturated with Allethrin, a copy of a naturally occurring insecticide found in chrysanthemum flowers, is placed on top of the metal grill. The heat generated by the butane cartridge vaporizes the repellent allowing it to rise into the air, creating a 15 x 15 ft (225 sq ft) mosquito and midge-freeze-zone in minutes. The repellent is very unpleasant to mosquitoes and midges but, when used as directed, will not harm humans or pets.
And how can we be so confident about how effective the products are? Well the U.S. Army currently uses them in Iraq, Kwait and Afghanistan, which we consider to be a fair recommendation!
