How Thermacell mosquito repellent works
Imagine an outdoor evening without biting mosquitoes and no itchy mosquito bites! Thermacell creates a zone that mosquitoes dislike, making a mosquito-free area.
Thermacell is a portable mosquito repellent for outdoor use that effectively repels mosquitoes without sprays or lotions on the skin. When the device is started, it heats a mosquito repellent mat using a gas cartridge. This releases an odorless substance that creates a protective zone around you.
The protection creates a zone of up to approximately 20 m² where mosquitoes avoid flying in. The result is a more pleasant outdoor environment on the patio, balcony, porch, or when you are out in nature.
Thermacell is quiet, portable, and easy to use, making it popular for barbecue evenings, camping, fishing, and other outdoor activities.

Other important information
- Use biocides safely. Always read the label and product information before use.
- Mats with mosquito repellent are a pesticide against mosquitoes and must not be used where there is a risk of exposure to aquatic environments.
- Mats with mosquito repellent may only be used in designated devices. Thermacell Mosquito Repellent is intended for outdoor use only. Do not use indoors, in tents, or in other enclosed spaces. Using in any other way than specified here may cause higher concentrations which can be irritating; ensure fresh air and rest.
- In case of ingestion of mats, drink water or milk and contact a doctor.
- Unused mats should be stored cool and dry in closed packaging. Mats and used devices are considered hazardous waste and should be taken to approved waste disposal facilities. Opened mat packages and used mats must not be reused.
- Each mosquito repellent mat lasts up to 4 hours. The mat is blue initially but fades and finally becomes white when the active ingredient has been fully released and the mat is thus used up. Vapors may sometimes be visible during use; this is completely normal. Do not expose the device or mats to rain.
