5 out of 5 stars Good results   September 2, 2008
My daughter has very strong reactions to mosquito bites and she seems to atract them. At one point, she was so covered with bites we considered not letting her go outside, until we tried these patches. We have now been through a box of twenty and we are very pleased with the results. She has only been bitten twice.

My family went camping for a long weekend. My daughter (22 mos), son (3 yrs) and myself each wore a patch, my husband did not. He came home with 15 to 20 bites and we didn't get any. He was our control subject that weekend.

I have been putting a patch on my daughter in the morning and take it off the next evening in the bath. The adhesive is very strong so it does hurt her when I remove the patch. It seems to make it a little better when I remove the patch in the tub.

I live in heavily infested forests in Arkansas. Hiking, camping and swimming is what I do. I had to give these up due to the fact that two weeks after summer starts, my arms and legs looked like I had some disease due to all the bites. So, I did some research and found out that the chemical we emit from our bodies can actually attract more insect bites. Persons with thyroid problems tend to have more problems. This explained a lot because I have hypothyroidism. The patch made so much sense to me because it changes your excreted odor, not just covered it up. I've not had one bite now!! You have no idea what a miracle this was for me. Some people do smell like vitamins, but I'd take that any day of the week to enjoy nature again. I can also see where this might not work for everyone due to our body chemistries being so different. My suggestion is to change your diet or research any medications you take to see if there's an alternative. I want to buy stock in this company just to assure it's survival!


4 out of 5 stars Worked for me but not my husband   May 14, 2008

This is the most effective product I've ever used - kept 100% of the bugs from bitting me in a heavily infested area (where I was eating dinner). However, my husband's experience was less successful. Why it is only 4 stars.

I continue to happily use this as the only bug repellent product where my husband uses it along with a backup product.

Recommend buying the 5 patch package to test effectiveness for your body type.



4 out of 5 stars They didn't bug me (mostly)   October 7, 2007

I bought this product before a family vacation back in July. My husband isn't bothered by mosquitos and such and likes to spend a lot of time outdoors, but the kids and I always end up bitten. We wore the patch through swimming, hiking in the woods and playing, and into the evening hours (to watch 4th of July fireworks). We had 2 bites between the three of us-- a LOT less than usual, especially considering that at home I usually get bitten within 5 minutes of setting foot outside.

Minuses: You DO smell like vitamins after a while. I didn't notice it much while I wearing it, but when the kids wore it separately, I could smell it as soon as they walked up to me. (Maybe I'll save it for when my girls are teenagers and going out on dates!)

Pluses: It works. It is convenient--just peel and stick. I removed half the paper liner at a time, and that kept the patch under control when applying it. I thought the kids would complain when I removed them, but it wasn't as bad as removing a band aid. (I put the patch on a hairless area, and used a steady pull, no sudden rips. Maybe the previous reviewer put it on a sensitive area? I have used the hip and thigh, and that seems to work OK.) It lasted all day. I didn't have to worry about bug spray on the kids (the younger one still sucks her thumb), or have to carry the spray can around.

So four stars instead of five because of the vitamin smell, and because we did get a couple of bites. It worked better for us than all but the strongest bug sprays (deep woods off), and was a lot more convenient. I will buy this produce again when the box runs out.

This product definitely did NOT work for me. I even used 2 patches at a time as we are in an area with heavy mosquito population due to the rain. I personally would NOT recommend this product.
