Works extremely well. Since we use it in our bedroom, we have no mosquitos. We often only switch it on if we hear one and soon its over. Never see them die but from what I see it makes them 'groggy' (I assume before dying).
I have a different brand, but I assume its always the same two ingredients. I looked them up and those really only work on insects, nothing dangerous for humans.

- Gys 4y agoThank you. I think the one we use is different as I had to lookup two substances. I do not have the packaging here at the moment, but will check (again). From the research report provided in your link: 'Conclusions: Prenatal exposure to pyrethroids may be associated at 1 y of age with poorer social-emotional development. At 2 y of age, poorer language development was observed with higher prenatal pyrethroid levels' Indeed not something that I would expose to children.
