Natural Mosquito Repellent Wristband - Black

I love this bracelet please make more options available I love it i use every summer i go camping. In big bear

I love this product! These either work GREAT or not at all. I wear 1 on my wrist & 1 on my ankle with no mosquitoes. My daughter-in-law purchased & they don't work for her. I think it had something to do with an individual's chemical makeup...? Worth a try - much better than sprays or creams.

I just got back from a trip to central america, and yes, I purchased the PARA'KITO for the mosquito bites, that I seem to attract at every vacation trip I take. now, the question is, would i wear this bracelet again. to keep it short, the answer is YES, but did it do the job at 100%, no, but the difference was noticeable. the package comes with 2 scented tablets, so I wore one on the bracelet, and I tied another one on my backpack. and at night I placed my backpack on one end of the bed, and the bracelet on the other end while I slept. the scent does seem to repel the mosquitoes, as they were visible around my "PARA'KITO bubble". but somehow the scent was not pleasing to them, and kept a distance. I did get bit here and there, but was nothing, compared to all my previous visits. I would recommend it, 100%. if you want 100% protection, then it would be not to be around mosquitoes, or bathed in mosquito spray. enjoy your next trip.

Bracelets like this are not so much a repellant as they are a scent mask. It keeps mosquitos from swarming to your location by messing with the scent receptors used to detect your breath and skin secretions. It will not stop a mosquito that randomly lands on you from biting you. This should be used in conjunction with DEET or Picaridin on the skin and Permethrin treated clothing and gear. Warning: the smell is EXTREMELY strong right after opening. Do not wear this in enclosed spaces during the first 2 days, because it will be overpowering. I wanted to cry while driving. After that it tapers off. You can put it in double ziploc bags to keep it from degrading between uses and to mask the smell.

It's fine, and seems to work a little.. But what wasn't completely clear is that it's just a little tag shaped piece of plastic that reeks of citronella. You tuck it into the mesh pocket on the bracelet, and that's it. You could probably just carry around a chunk of citronella candle and have it do about as much. My 6 year old liked that it was a thing he could put on, and would get rid of the flies he dislikes so much, but it may work better as a psychological crutch, than as an actual barrier against biting insects. Works fine, not great, and is frankly a little over priced.

Mosquitos absolutely love me and I am allergic to Deet. I bought a few different styles of the Parakito bracelets for myself and my sons who don’t get bit like I do. They completely leave my boys alone while wearing these and help me ward off most mosquitoes while I’m wearing them. I do wear one on an ankle and one on a wrist. During dawn and dusk hours I will still get bit but not nearly as much as without the bracelets. Before buying these we were using the coiled citronella bracelets but that smell alone is completely overpowering and would make me sick to my stomach after awhile. I am thankful I found these bracelets. I do understand their limitations and am still cautious as to when I go out during mosquito season but they help a ton. I’d rather have one or two bites than quite literally 30 of them. I would recommend these. I bought them of my own accord and was not paid to give a good review. They are pricey but worth the comfort and functionality of them I feel. They are way better than the cheap coil ones. Because the citronella is diluted with other oils it definitely makes the scent much easier to deal with. I also do put lavender and peppermint oil directly on my hair, neck and ankles to help ward away mosquitoes and all of it together makes it much more enjoyable to be outside.

I really hoped this would be an answer to using Deet based bug sprays. The bracelet comes just as described. The scent packets are labeled & easy to insert into the bracelet. Unfortunately, the mosquitoes & black flies were not deterred. I tried different bracelet locations & different scents (although they all seemed to be about the same). It didn't matter. The only thing that kept the bugs from biting me continues to be a Deet based spray.

My youngest has severe reaction to mosquito bites. So we do our best to keep him from getting bitten because even one bite becomes a baseball sized welt. He's seven and we live in the south so it's a lot to have to spray him every time he walks out the door. Recently he ran across the way just to talk to our neighbors and walked in with 5 bites that were already swelling and fevered so I went on a mission to find some way of providing some level of protection for the times he wasn't bug sprayed. I found this product and the price and 2 week expiration was a bit hard to justify but I decided it was worth at least trying. We are 3 weeks in and i have not used bug spray once. He grabs his bracelet every time he sets foot out the door to go play outside. We keep in in a baggie when it's not being worn and i think it has helped it last longer though I just changed it just to be sure but it still smells pretty potent. I'd still spray him if we were going out in the woods or fishing but for everyday yard play this thing is so worth it! My teen went out side with him last night and he came in with 6 bites on his legs and asked for a bracelet like his brothers (who did not have any.) So here I am on Amazon looking at adult sizes.

Funciona muy bien

Quick and no fuss delivery. product is amazing, it keep mosquitos away.

La pulsera está bien, las tabletas no huelen mucho, aún no la pongo a prueba como tal pero se ve prometedora.

Lo recomiendo ampliamente para evitar los piquetes de zancudos en los niños!!! Funciona perfecto, hasta ahorita ha sido la mejor opción que he comprado…

El envío llegó según lo indicado y el funcionamiento fue bueno, no hace milagros, pero para lo que me suelen picar, se redujo bastante.
