In the MosquitoPatch, 75
mg of thiamine, also known as vitamin B1, is
delivered over the course of 24 hours. It
is recommended that the patch be applied 2 hours
prior to exposure to mosquitoes so that there is
enough time for thiamine to be excreted through
the pores. Following the full release of
thiamine over 24 hours there may be additional
protection of up to 12 hours while the remaining
thiamine fully circulates through the
bloodstream and is excreted.
Unlike other insect repellents, the
MosquitoPatch is non-toxic and completely safe
for use. Delivering only 100% thiamine
directly to the bloodstream, the MosquitoPatch
avoids the potential harmful side effects on the
intestine and liver of attempting to ingest
enough vitamin B1, as well as the other health
side-effects attributed to other forms of
mosquito repellent.
The MosquitoPatch is
applied to clean, dry, hairless skin. The
muscles of the upper arm or shoulder blade are
prime spots for application, as the blood
vessels supplying these areas will easily be
able to take up the thiamine. As the
MosquitoPatch is such a discrete, easy to use
product that doesn’t result in a sticky, smelly
residue remaining on the skin, the places that
one can use the MosquitoPatch in are as varied
as the places one can find mosquitoes. The
perfect option for family summer holidays,
backyard barbeques, fishing trips, travel hot
climates, dog walks, outdoor work and warm
summer evenings spent outside. Containing
only 100% Thiamine, the MosquitoPatch is also
completely safe for young children, an important
factor to consider when selecting mosquito
repellent for the family.
