mosquito shield

Post by LauraD »

Just wanted to share with you a product I recieved last week and boy do they work! Viatek mosquito shield bands you wear like a bracelet. I live in central Florida with a lake in my backyard and the little biters are starting to get bad. I put one on my wrist and another on the opposite ankle and not one bite. The flies seem to go for my dogs ears when outside, put one on his collar, no flies anywhere. I am going to buy more for our upcoming trip. Laura

Thanks for the tip - I am a bug magnet and will be on STJ soon. With all the rain, I hope these work!

I'm going to wait to hear more personal reviews from folks here. Ratings I saw elsewhere were all over the board. If our VIOL folks have success with these, I'd pay ALOT of money to get them! Blaine's a bug magnet!

Ordered them on Amazon! Will be here before our departure in 2 1/2 weeks...will definitely report back. My partner is an A+ bug magnet and with all the rains this could save her. On the othe rhand, the bugs barely notice me! Weird!
