| Professional Review: |
| This portable, light weight biting insect repellent produces a scent that biting insects hate, but is pleasant to humans. The repellent cartridge contains beads made with Geraniol, a naturally occurring plant oil. Effective to repel mosquitoes, biting no-see-ums, and some biting flies! Just slide one of the replaceable repellent cartridges onto the Bite Shield? and turn on the battery-operated unit. The super quiet fan distributes the scented repellent to give you an umbrella of protection from biting insects. |

Summary: I can't believe it works! I am amazed. My mom sent this to me after I'd complained about already being eaten alive by mosquitos this year. I don't just get bites; I get huge, oddly shaped, so-itchy-they're-almost-painful, welts. And I am that person who attracts every single biting insect. I have often wished that I sweated DEET. However, I don't. I tried this dubiously, first in the morning--I'd been getting bites every day between 8 and 10am (even with high % deet). --No bites.-- I still didn't believe it. I used it again that evening--after a rainstorm had come through--from about 6pm to 10pm. No bites! It comes with a belt clip, but I left it outside at one point when I came inside. The second I left its side, a mosquito landed on me. I have, since then, used it several more times, no insect spray at all, and it's been very muggy around here. Absolutely no bites. I have seen a couple more bees than usual, and it turns out that the ingredient this blows out (geraniol) is said to attract bees. Not a big deal to me. It apparently doesn't work for everyone. I have always assumed that there is some sort of chemical I give off that makes mosquitos head straight for me, bypassing everyone else. (I might be at a party where no one else even sees a mosquito and I leave with over a dozen bites.) I wonder if the geraniol somehow combines with whatever it is that I put out and neutralizes it. This could explain why it would work for some people and not other people. At this price, it's worth it to find out if you are one of the people for whom it might work! I figure if I replace the cartridge every 2 weeks (~$3.50/cartridge), I will even be saving money because I'd been going through 1-2 cans of high-deet bug spray per week. Summary: It doesn't work at all. I bought two of this Bite Shield. There is a small fan to blow out some smell of chemical. The mosquito doesn't care about the smell. I was surrounded by mosquitoes and got bite the same as without this product. There is almost no wind. It is really disappointed. Summary: South India I couldn't really tell if the device was working or not. I took it with me to South India. It did not seem to pack much punch, but it was better than having nothing. Summary: Reviewed by a retired Engineer I received this Lentek Model MM30, called Bite Shield yesterday afternoon and at around 4:30 PM I tested this thing in my back yard which a hiding place for some Asian Tiger mosquitos in Houston, Texas. These pesky mosquitos are known to bite during daytime. Within 5 minutes while testing in a light breeze of around 4 to 5 MPH one adult came by with three other smaller ones, despite of this Lentek running by my side. I swatted the adult and two smaller ones by my palm when they started feeding on my left arm, but the other juvenile got away. This morning, at 8:15 AM I tested it again in calm air and was surprised that one or two mosquitos will not land on my test arm. I tested again this afternoon before sunset with calm air, and got bitten while this Lentek was running on my belt. I came back inside my home scratching my left elbow. I would just give this Lentek MM30 a 3-star rating at this place where these Asian Tiger mosquitos are plentiful. Summary: The Bite Shield We received one of these with our new Skeeter Beater. I didn't know why there were no gnats, or mosquitos, buzzing around my head, and in my face, as there always are... yet, no bugs were in the tray of this large Skeeter machine. I thought that it was repelling, instead of killing the gnats and mosquitos. Well, after a couple of days, my husband remembered that we received this little gizmo, and he had forgotten that he turned it on and left it running in the screen house. This little thing was apparantly repelling the bugs away from the large skeeter unit! It was sitting approximately 15' away. Those gnats flying in your face and eyes, constantly, can drive you mad, and they were there all day, every day...what a nightmare! Now, even in the evening, no mosquitos! What the heck is in this thing? It works without dangerous chemicals???? This is absolutely the best repeller I have ever used, and I have tried them all. We live in a large wooded area, surrounded by ponds, lakes, and swamps. We are amazed at this item, and will be buying more. Psyche!!! NO BUGS!!! |
