Here's what most homeowners discover too late: UV bug zappers, citronella, and the majority of "mosquito control" products on the market were not designed around how mosquitoes actually hunt.
Mosquitoes don't navigate by light. They don't care about citronella. They track one thing: the CO2 in your breath, your body heat, and the biological scent of your skin. UV zappers catch moths. Citronella temporarily masks your scent but leaves your yard full of mosquitoes. Thermacell protects a 15-foot bubble - not your whole patio.
The products you've already tried weren't failing you. They were doing exactly what they were built to do. The problem is they were never built for mosquito elimination.
