Cliganic 10 Pack Mosquito Repellent Bracelets, DEET-Free Bands, Individually Wrapped (Packaging May Vary)

I haven't yet used any of these from this order, but I havve used these Cliganic wrist bands in the recent past. I am highly responsive to any type of bite, so I must use a repellent when outside, and I can't use sprays because of my asthma. These work quite well, and don't have an awful smell! NOTE: I do use one on each wrist, maybe a little overboard but I'm telling you, I am like a magnet for biting insects and react horribly to the bites, so I take extra care to avoid being bitten! I recommend these wrist bands!

These are fantastic, and I'm a cranky old person with expectations! I am a mosquito magnet, and my body's reaction to bites is severe and extended. I can easily get several bites just walking to my mailbox. These work so well, it's a game changer. I especially like that I can use one for a brief time, and then put it back in its resealable envelope to use again later.I tried the thermal mosquito units, but they take 15 minutes to begin to work, didn't work very well, and the refills are expensive.I still use Sawyer's picaridin insect repellent lotion for extended time outside, but these are effective and so convenient. It's literally changed my life, because I used to have to either use chemicals on my skin for a half hour of exposure OR deal with the inevitable bites that lasted for weeks.

For those seeking a quick, low-chemical, kid-approved mosquito deterrent, these bracelets are appealing—especially for casual outdoor moments like gardening, short walks, or light camping. However, if you're dealing with heavy insect pressure (e.g., during trips to mosquito-infested areas), don't rely solely on them—add a backup like spray or netting.Highlights at a Glance• Ease of use: slip-on design—no mess, no fuss• Kid-safe & travel-ready: resealable individually wrapped bands• Fragrance: pleasant citronella lemongrass• Effectiveness: varies—some swear by them, others not so much

So I had bought these when they were in the old packaging and so I’m not as familiar with the new look and I must say, I like the old colors better. I need my pink mkay .. anyhow these bracelets from this company works wonders. I’m like a MAGNET to mosquitos. I’d tell people just have me around as I’m a natural mosquito repellent/shield for others since they swarm towards me. Not only that I have a horrible allergic reaction to their bites so one bite will welt the size of a baseball. It’s crappy. But when I go outside with my son we both wear these bracelets .. mind you I wear one on every extremity.. I DO NOT get bit… not once. Ya’ll are amazing… just bring my pink color back. Thanks.

These bracelets work but with caveats. I got them because sometimes I want to take quick walks outside, but don't want to put on sticky big spray and have to shower 2x a day because of the spray. Enter these bracelets.1st caveat: they fairly quickly decrease in efficacy, which makes me feel guilty for creating so much non compostable/recyclable waste relatively quickly. I have a neighbor with a swampy pool that causes a bunch of mosquitos in the neighborhood in the summer. Without the bracelets, I got 14 bites when going outside for 1 hour. With the bracelets (1st wear and one per limb), I got none.2nd caveat: I have found that I need 1 bracelet per limb in order to avoid bites. For a nighttime Joshua tree stargazing outing with a friend, we each only put one on and both got bit up like crazy. Later, I gave the bracelets another chance. I put one on each elbow and one on each knee. Wore them and then put them back in the pouches for later use. No bites. Used them a 2nd and 3rd time with no bites, but got 4 bites today with the 4th use, which indicates they're at their effective end of life at around 3 or 4 wears.Overall, they work if you make sure you have a little citronella bubble around you by putting one on each limb, but they generate a relatively large amount of waste for the amount of protection they provide, and the protection itself can be spotty. If your only goal is to not use chemical spray on your skin, these bracelets meet it. If your goal is solely to not get bit, spray might be a better choice.

We love these mosquito bands. We first bought last year and again this year. My grandson goes to camp and it’s in the woods. Other kids are bitten up, but not our boy. They work so much better than the patches you put on clothes that fall off. We put one on his wrist and one on his ankle and off he goes. You can even reseal them and put in its punch for next day use. We only use them 2 days then start with new ones.

We live in an isolated wooded area and have a 2 acre fishing pond in my back yard. I usually get 10-15 bites when I go out there in the summer. I wore one on my wrist and one on my ankle and had no bites. I haven’t tried using them for a second time yet but plan on it tonight. These seem to work pretty well.

Not sure they actually really work but price is great for quantity. Smell like citrus. I like that they come in individual bags and they can be zipped back together if you don’t need it. Directions say they last best for 4 hours but I’ve had these smell for hours. Probably just most effective for the first 4. Very stretchy. Does not leave residue on your skin.
