<--- firm believer in Thermacell. i even keep an extra in my truck (stays in the truck year round) incase i forget to pack my other one in my hunting bag.

I never used one ...if you have asthma ..would it cause an attack I wonder..smoke is bad for asthmatics

RE: Mosquitos in FL Swamps
 

my guess is no. it doesn't produce actual smoke...just a scent. i would call the company and ask just in case.

RE: Mosquitos in FL Swamps
 

Appreciate the heads up. I hear many hunters use it...I need to give it a try.

RE: Mosquitos in FL Swamps
 

sure makes swamp hunt'n more enjoyable!

Hi Chuck,
You may want to test it out before you head out in the wild. I don't have asthma, but serious allergies and it does cause me to cough sometimes if I get a big dose of it in my mouth or nose. Better safe than sorry!

Another firm believer in the Thermacell, just remember, it takes a few minutes to warm up.

RE: Mosquitos in FL Swamps
 

My advice is to use a bug suit as well as a Thermacell. Firm believe in the Thermacell. Was turkey hunting one morning in the swamp and forgot to turn it on for a while. (Got distracted when turkeys started to gobble) Was wearing a bug suit and the only part of me that was exposed was my elbow when it was bent. My elbow got eaten up before I realized it. Popped the Thermacell on and the bugs were gone. Never leave home,camp without it ever since and always turn it on as soon as I get in the woods/swamp.

Thanks for all the input on the thermacell. I bought one today and am excited to not have that annoying buzzing in my ear. I think I can stand being bit more than I can stand that incessant buzzing.
