I have a thermacell and haven't had the luck with it that others have. Maybe Alaska mosquitoes have an immunity to modern technology because they used my thermacell to fornicate on.
Our last couple of trips to Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida my wife and I were surprised by the lack of mosquitoes. We couldn't believe how mosquito free the area was for being swampland. Maybe we're just used to Alaska sized mosquito invasions.
