| Thermacell Posted by ChenierauTigre Everybody on here seems to think they are effective. The box claims that it repels mosquitoes and black flies. Does anyone know if it works on gnats? The gnats are so bad here that you inhale them when you breathe. It sucks.  on 4/30 at 4:28 pmAnd does it really work on the biting flies? I want to try it in my kayak. Reply • Back to Top |

 In a yak, if the wind is blowing really hard, gnats are the least of your worries.Reply • Back to Top |

| Even after the mosquitoes aren't an issue when it cools off, you can take used pad (or whatever the thing is that has the repellent on it) and douse it with some vanilla. Deer smell the sweet aroma and usually come check it out if nothing else has their attention... Reply • Back to Top |
