Hey Waterguy

Do you bring them with you when you come to visit and if so how do you get the butane here as they won't ship :( and it's on the list of products not allowed in luggage on my airlines website :(

Do you know anyone who will ship - thanks and did you decide to visit soon or not (I lost track of that thread) - hope so and then will see you soon :)

Ruth could probably make a killing selling them.

Thanks for this thread...I didn't know these existed. I have to get one for camping!

At home, I use the Candle Version made by OFF! with great results. So if you can't get the butane to STJ, you could try those instead.

I called CostULess and they do not have butane. They have propane, but that's a different connector.

We use the "Off" version but it's not working here right now :(

I tried the link that Waterguy gave but the company won't ship the butane here as it's too expensive to ship :(

I ordered 10 of the raquets (I found them on-line) and they are being shipped for $8.50 each including Priority Mail shipping :) - the island is sold out of them right now :(

I just bought a new type of bug spray - Repel Lemon Eucalyptus 6 hour repellent - no deet as I think I have developed an allergy to it :( so I'll let you know how it goes. I have used it before but a long time ago and I think it was great but alittle oily but I'l try anything right now and it's on sale for 40% off at Big Planet :)

I will check the store on Monday (Paradise Lumber), I am pretty sure we have butane. I just need to look to make sure.

And we have about 75 mosquito zappers in stock too. 8)

Hey Puddle

You should stand next to the road waving those zappers - they will be gone before breakfast :)

Well Pia there was no need to stand by the road waving bug zappers today because we sold a bunch anyway. Good idea! haha

However, we are out of stock of butane. Looks like you need a cartridge made for the Thermacell, which I ordered some . These will not arrive until 4-6 weeks.
