I've spent the last three nights in my back yard with my new Trail Lair, with very thin HyperD 1.6. It hasn't been soaked, yet, so I'm using my rain poncho UQP. No bites (and I get them if I sit on the front porch for more than five minutes).

First bottle of what exactly?

The Thermacell works well, I use the backpacker model which uses regular isopro canisters. It doesn’t use very much fuel. I use it in the yard and most anywhere. As stated before watch the wind.

Sorry....permethrin. Hard to get in Canada, as mentioned by OP

I’m in Ontario & just bought (July 6, so this is all recent info) Martin’s 10% Permethrin through eBay. Amazon wouldn’t deliver. Kind of pricey for shipping ($14.59 US for product / $27.93 US for shipping), but it made it from Florida in 3 days (Seller: piccardmeds4pets (107114) for reference, but shipping has gone up to $40!)

Now all I need is for my hammock to arrive so I can treat & hang!

@Kayak_Jake nice getting it in. I've been on an island on Stoney Lake for 3 weeks and the mosquitoes are thick like a blizzard at night when it's not windy as you probably know. If you got a big bottle of it and want to sell me some to help offset your cost I'm good for it. I'll be in town this Saturday around noon. Shoot me a PM if interested!
