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.
