Mosquito and fly repellent torch light

All too often, evenings outdoors are ruined by flies and mosquitoes. This torch will make you want to try again without being bothered. It has been designed to meet 2 main requirements:

1 - Keep mosquitoes and other flying insects away from the area where the torch is lit. Thanks to a natural support in the shape of a disc, impregnated with geraniol, an active substance well known for keeping insects away, the heat of the flame will spread the product over a perimeter of around 5 to 6 m².

2 - Create a warm atmosphere. Once lit, the flame turns red.

Protection, effectiveness and a cosy atmosphere for your outdoor evenings.

N.B.: We won't describe the entire protocol here, as it would be rather lengthy. But if you wish, we can send it to you. Please don't hesitate to ask.

Instructions for use

Remove the torch from its case and the bag from the washer. Unscrew the cap and straighten the wick. Open the bag and place the washer around the wick. Light the wick with a lighter. The heat of the torch will diffuse the active ingredient from the washer for immediate effectiveness. To extinguish the torch while it is burning, use the metal cap to smother the flame. Wait several minutes before replacing the plug. Wash your hands after handling.

Its composition

Mixed solution (150 ml) Propane-1,2-Diol (CAS 57-55-6); Washer: SA geraniol 4.5% (CAS 106-24-1) TP19

Why do mosquitoes want your skin ?

Mosquitoes don't love our skin so much as the carbon dioxide (CO2) that emanates from it! When it's hot, your body temperature rises, as does your perspiration. And the whiter your skin, the more CO2 you give off.
Secondly, the insect is attracted by your perspiration. Your sweat gives off chemical compounds that are much appreciated by insects: volatile fatty acids, lactic acid and carbon dioxide (CO2). As the production of these molecules varies between individuals, this explains why some skins are more attractive to mosquitoes than others.

The mosquito's antennae are in action ! They act as a "nose" to detect the presence of high levels of CO2 around them, triggering them to move towards the source.

Precautions for use

Keep out of reach of children. Store in a dry place.

Packaging

Delivered in a 100% recyclable cardboard box containing all the components of the flashlight.

Dimensions

Torch dimensions: Ø 85 mm.

We answer your questions

▼ Can I recharge the torch and re-impregnate the washer when everything is empty and dry ?
The manufacturer is studying a new format that allows recharging. Unfortunately, for the moment, the one in use does not allow this.
▼ Is this torch designed for both indoor and outdoor use ?
You can indeed operate it either indoors or outdoors.
▼ On approximately what surface does this torch protect us from insects ?
The effectiveness study carried out in the laboratory (in an enclosed area) covered a room 2.5m high, 3m wide and 4m long, i.e. 30 m3. So that gives you a good idea !
