While it is often nice to know I am loved, I can do without it being from mosquitoes! These pesky critters adore me, and yes I do know it is because I am so sweet, lol. But, I also found out it is really because mosquitoes are attracted to me for several other different reasons according to to the MosquitoMeter Quiz. In the meantime to keep my skin from smelling like pine, and also having welts the size of quarters I am using the OFF! Power Pad Lamp on my back patio. Does it work...Heck Yes, and my skin is proof. We entertained the other night, and I had no bites and wasn't coated in offensive sticky spray to boot. I am a happy camper!The OFF! Power Pad Lamp can Protect an area up to 15x further than citronella candles or buckets – The heat from the candle activates the repellent pad, releasing proven protection from mosquitoes. In fact, there’s more repelling power in one little pad than 15 citronella buckets combined! Which is approximately the size of my back patio, so perfect.
Refillable – Each candle + pad combo in the OFF! Power Pad Lamp provides up to 4 full hours of protection. Each refill pack contains three pads and three candles, providing up to 12 total hours of repellent per pack. It worked the full length of time that we had friends over for barbecue
Relightable! – The candle and repellent pad of the OFF! Power Pad Lampare designed to work together. So if the candle is extinguished, simply relight the candle to reactivate the repellent pad. When not in use, please follow the proper storage instructions. Prolonged storage of repellent pads in outdoor conditions may decrease effectiveness. Easy to use, and easy to re-use.

This would go out on our patio.
Too bad I am not qualified for this giveaway.

I would use it in my backyard. We cant spend time out there in the evenings because the mosquitos are so bad. Thank you.
We love to sit in the backyard in the evening with a bottle of wine, and a fire in the chiminea, which we can't do most of the time because of critters. Thanks!
I would put the lamp on its post and place it near the patio table.

I would love to have this since my oldest daughtr is allergic to bug spray.
I would put this on the patio table to keep away the mosquitoes when we have cook outs or when I sit out there with the girls late at night drinking margaritas, I love that it's casts such a pretty glow and doesn't have an overpowering smell.

The Off Power Pad Lamp would be a permanent fixture on the patio. Not only would it keep the mosquitos away, it would provide light.
traymona[at]aol.com
i would use this at my mom's house since she lives in the woods
I'd use this on the back porch so we can enjoy sunsets without fear of being bitten.
This would be great for campouts, a sunset picnic on the beach and concerts at the Zoo or Park that run into the dusk hours.
We live across the a river and love to sit out on the porch at dusk. This would live there because sometimes the mosquitos are horrible

ceimusic@aol.com
Those are awesome! I'd put it in my backyard for our summer barbeques!
We sit outside every night, slathered in bug spray but the mosquito's still seem to find ME. It would be great to actually not get bit once in a while.
I'd love to use this on my back porch! We love to eat outside, but we live near a river so the bugs are terrible. This would be so helpful!

I would take this lamp outside with me in the evening. I live in south Louisiana and the mosquitoes are horrible.
I like to walk my dog in the evenings and we sit on our deck and watch for the rabbits to come to feed in the backyard where we live. It is near woods and there are a lot of mosquitoes! This would make it a much nicer time for both of us.
It'd be great for those times we're working late in the yard. It would also be nice to have in case a hurricane comes, because when the power's out, it's nice to cook the MREs on the back porch where it's slightly cooler than in the house.
This would be perfect for the times that my family and I eat outdoors.
We would use this at the campground!
I follow your blog
I would love to be able to sit out on our deck with my daughters and enjoy the warm weather without having to be eaten alive by bugs - this would be perfect to put out there.
Thanks!

The bugs love my youngest daughter and I. We could spend a little more time outside playing if we had one of these. Thank you!

I like to sit on my patio when I get home from work to enjoy the fresh air, but I don't get home until 8:30 pm and by then those little buggers are biting. I'd put this on my patio so that I can sit and relax after a hard day's work.
I'd use the lamp when we're playing outside to stop the tiger mosquitoes
We camp alot and the mosquitoes have been awful...so this will be put to good use!
Our family loves to enjoy the early evenings on our back patio but alas! mosquitos love US...this would be a wonderful summer addition for us.
