June 16, 2010 Father's Day Guarantee For Fishermen
Ahhh, Father's Day weekend! A weekend complete with gifts, fishing (we hope), burgers on the grill—and hoards of mosquitoes droning in your ears.
Bug dope and citronella candles might keep the bloodthirsty pests away, but there's another way to do the job—without the greasy film on your hide, or the eye-scorching fumes. ThermaCell is a handy little device that keeps a 225-square-foot area clean of 'skeeters, blackflies and no-see-ums. On the inside a tiny butane-fueled heating element activates the repellent, releasing it into the air to create a bug-proof dome that doesn't smell or burn your eyes.
If you sit on the bank after dark looking for catfish or other night-feeders, check out the ThermaCell lantern. It's got the same bug-shielding qualities built into a strong LED light source.
