Bonide Mosquito Beater Area Mosquito Repellent , 1.3 lbs, Granules

Works really well, like the citronella smell

Love this product I put it in little bowls around my door that way mosquitos don’t come in while we’re getting in the house. Now if you are sensitive to strong scents then don’t be so generous with it. I put this around my back door and you could smell it from the street. But does it’s job and keeps mosquitos at bay, now I do have to put new granules at least every 3 days because the smell does go down a little and some mosquitos do come through. But over all great product. Will buy again when I run out.

This mosquito repellant does an ok job. It claims to work for up to 3 weeks, but I have used it for years and it has only worked for up to 4 days for me. Normally lasts about 3 days. It has a very pleasant smell. The granules are small. The container allows for you to shake the product, but I normally use a broadcast spreader. I have found that if I put it out on Friday afternoon/evening, my get together on Saturday is normally mosquito free.

Nice product for your garden

This product does not work whatsoever. On top of that, when I received it, I figured it'd be sealed, it wasn't. I also thought it'd be more full as the bottle was half way full. It looked like someone used it. I assumed they did and tried to return it/get a refund. I was unable and told to talk to the manufacturer, so I did. I was told it isn't sealed and are weighed before shipped. Which is fine, but why was the bottle SO empty? Could you even tell if it was used and returned? I doubt it. Worst of all, it doesn't work. Whatsoever. I used the entire container almost, and we still got bit. Onto something else.

This is an odd review to write. In summary, it works, under specific conditions. Do not expect it to completely eliminate all mosquito bites, because you will absolutely be disappointed. *IF* you expect a reasonable reduction, and your use case matches the product's narrow range of optimum conditions, however... it may be worth your money to try at least once. PROs: *Pleasing scent *Easy to apply *Seemingly non-toxic and not dangerous for animals or children *Reduces presence of mosquitoes when applied in large amounts in concentrated areas that are free from wind and rain CONs: *Need to reapply after rain or windy conditions *Expensive *Reduces but does not completely eliminate mosquitoes *Visible on areas where the product is sprinkled (it looks like sawdust drizzled all over my patio)

SEEMS TO WORK WELL

So far so good! I sprinkled this on the outskirts of our yard, and within a few days noticed a huge difference in mosquitoes. Definitely have to reapply after rain, but if it stays dry it seems to continue to work for quite awhile. Also a great quantity for the price
