How It Works

Mosquitos locate victims by searching for body heat and skin odors. Upon lighting a mosquito repellant, repellent oils interfere with a mosquito's sense receptors. Confused and repelled by the mixture of smoke and natural oils, they cease their usual behavior of landing on mammals and drawing blood, thanks to the use of the Homesteader's Mosquito Repellant. Our repellant makes it difficult for them to navigate or detect the carbon dioxide and lactic acid humans exhale.
