How do you know when it's lost its effectiveness?

Reviewer: Grace Doll, Fanwood, NJ USA

Not sure if these work on their own, since we use them as another layer of protection in addition to bug spray. But I wonder, just how do you know when they've lost their effectiveness and it's time to use new ones? The product is supposed to last up to 120 hours, but I don't keep a log of how long the kids wear them each time. I keep them sealed in a ziploc bag when we're not using them. Do I have to wait until they get bitten to know the bands need to be thrown out?

these work well to repel mosquitoes and you do not have to spray toxic stuff all over... they are surprisingly long-lasting if you keep them in the little plastic container provided. (I read the other reviews from people who say they did not work- I am surprised because without them I get LOTS of bites and if I put them on- no problems.)

These actually work!

Our 2 year old daughter was getting eaten alive and I mean she has scars she had so many bites. We found these and didn't have to spray her just so she could go out and play for 15 minutes. They are a great alternative to sprays. We placed it on her ankle since she was getting bitten on her legs the most. Haven't had a bite since. I am not sure how it works for adults though.

Eh...Not the best.

Reviewer: Belinda Darke,

These bands do not really repel mosquitos unless you wear one on every extremity and your body temp is warm enough to really heat the band up and release the scent...The bands did reduce the number of mosquitos buzzing about, but we still got a fair amount of bites. So far, nothing beats DEET.

I purchased these because I read a review that they worked better than the Clip-On Bug Repellant , but they did not work for me unless I wore them near my neck attached to a necklace to keep the bugs away from my face when mowing the lawn...
