Which manufacturer to choose and where to buy mosquito repellent?
One of the leading brands in this industry, widely represented on the market, is Mosquitall (Moskitol)
. This name has been familiar to Russian consumers since back in 1998 - then the company specialized only in the production of harmless insect repellents. The product immediately became in demand even among the most fastidious customers, because it could safely be used to treat leather or children’s clothing. 13 years later – in 2011 – the brand’s collection was replenished with more “serious” products based on insecticides, as well as sedatives to eliminate itching after a bite.
Today you can buy a fumigator, ointment, cream or spray against Mosquitol mosquitoes in almost every store. But the online store Valles.ru
. In the online catalog you will find a wide range of insect repellents, low prices and fast delivery throughout Russia. If you have any questions, we are waiting for your call:

No. 9 – LS-915
Price: 700 rubles
A number of repellers can boast of good effectiveness, but there is a nuance - in their work they use chemicals, poisons and other substances that are not very beneficial to human health. The undoubted advantage of ultrasonic devices is their environmental friendliness; they produce sounds characteristic of the flight of a male mosquito, thereby driving away blood-sucking evil spirits. The range of the device is 20 meters, which allows it to cover most apartments.
The device runs on two AA batteries. The LS-915 is perhaps one of the most inexpensive offerings on the market, which could not have a positive effect on its reliability and quality - the device is made of mediocre materials and cannot boast of a long service life. If you are on a very limited budget, the choice is not bad, but if you have the opportunity to spend a little more, it is better to find something else.

No. 8 – Ecosniper AR112

The device has a built-in flashlight and can also make a siren sound, attracting the attention of people around you. The device weighs only 10 grams, so carrying it does not cause any difficulties. The impact area is quite impressive for personal repellers - up to 10 meters.
It runs on two AAA batteries, and in the kit you will find a special lanyard with which you can hang the device around your neck. This product is manufactured in China, but designed in Russia, so its quality is quite decent.

No. 6 – Sititek 045AE
Price: 1500 rubles
An interesting tool that, in addition to fighting mosquitoes, can also act as a small lighting device and serve as a fragrance. The device operates from a standard 220 V network and does not pose a threat to people. In general, the device can be used not only indoors, but its power is not the greatest and it will not cover an area of more than 30 square meters.

Repellents
Repellents can be a lifesaver for three to four hours. However, they all contain harmful toxic substances. For example, DEET - diethyltoluamide: this chemical compound was invented in the USA in 1946 to protect the army from insects. The consequences of its use are delayed and unpredictable; use is especially harmful for pregnant women and children. 17% of DEET enters the bloodstream, so repellents should be applied to clothing, but never to the face or hands. The higher the DEET content in the bottle, the longer the product protects against mosquitoes, but the more toxic the substance is to humans. If you apply the repellent to clothing, the drug lasts longer: 10–15 days; between wears, clothing should be stored in a sealed bag.
Know-how: portable self-spraying repeller for outdoor recreation. It is attached to clothing and creates a “protective cloud” around a person due to its unpleasant aroma for mosquitoes. One cartridge lasts for 12 hours, but can be used continuously for no more than four hours.
No. 5 – Tornado OK.01
Price: 1500 rubles
The mosquito and midge repeller from the Tornado brand is distinguished by the ability to work both from the electrical network and in autonomous mode using three AA batteries. Its frequency range is 4000 – 40000 KHz, so even the most persistent mosquitoes will not be able to resist the effects of its ultrasonic radiation. The effective area here is about 50 square meters, so you can use it both at home and, for example, in a gazebo located on the street.
Tornado OK.01 is a fairly popular mosquito repeller among Russians, due to its reasonable combination of price and quality. The device is manufactured in the city of Togliatti, meeting the highest requirements for electronics that interact with people. In general, if you are too lazy to understand the intricacies of choosing such devices, purchasing this model will definitely not be a mistake.

No. 4 – Weitech WK-240
Price: 1850 rubles
Another device from the well-known manufacturer of repellers Weitech, which has received a lot of positive reviews in the Russian-speaking segment of the Internet. The main purpose of the device is to fight small rodents like mice, but it will also quickly repel mosquitoes from the room in which you are. The device produces virtually no noise that can be heard by the human ear, and also has no negative impact on humans and pets.
In general, the device does not have any outstanding technical characteristics, but its overall balance and incredible reliability make it extremely popular among domestic buyers. It fell a little short of the top 3, but only because the remaining representatives of the ranking turned out to be too good. A good compromise between price and performance.

How to remove itching from a mosquito bite?
Buying a fumigator is, of course, a good idea. But what if the mosquito has already done its evil deed, and your skin is constantly itching, preventing you from relaxing? You can go to the pharmacy and buy a special ointment, but this costs additional time and money. That’s why connoisseurs of folk recipes – simple, cheap and very effective – rush to the rescue here too!
For example, the bite site can be wiped with an ice cube.
. It will instantly cool the damaged area of the skin and have a calming and toning effect. This method is unlikely to heal a wound, but it will definitely help protect the skin from scratches and inflammation (a natural result of constant scratching).
Salt is also a great help in eliminating itching.
You only need half a teaspoon: add it to a glass of water, mix well and apply the resulting solution to the bite site. Leave it like this for 10-15 minutes and then wash it off. The method is also good because, in addition to itching, it can significantly reduce inflammation - in other words, heal the damage.
Soda/potassium permanganate/ammonia
- any member of this trio can be very useful in the fight against obsessive itching. We do everything the same way as with salt - the result will not be long in coming.
Toothpaste is also known to have good pain-relieving properties.
. Well, who among us in childhood did not soothe a sore tooth with this simple and so accessible remedy? And it’s effective! It’s the same story with itchy skin: apply a small amount of paste to the bite site, let it dry and wash it off. Thanks to the cooling effect, the wound will quickly stop itching. It just won’t heal, and the effect itself will be short-lived - this must be kept in mind.
Laundry soap, honey
and even
a banana peel
(more precisely, its inner side) are more original methods of eliminating itching. But if the mosquito bite itches unbearably, and you don’t have any salt, paste, or ice on hand, you can use any of them. It will take quite a long time to rub each of these products into the skin; you should not count on a long-lasting effect.
#3 – Protector Freetime
Price: 1900 rubles
An excellent representative of the class of personal ultrasonic repellers, with a bright design and an interesting fastening system. Unlike most of these devices, which is a small latch, this device looks more like a stylish orange bracelet that is attached to the hand, although it can also be used as a standard clip.
The body of the device is made of impact-resistant plastic, so it is not afraid of falls from a small height and minor impacts. Power comes from a lithium battery, which is enough for 3-4 months of continuous operation. The device acts exclusively on the auditory receptors of insects, so that your household and beloved pets will not even notice its existence. Protektor Freetime has four operating modes and you can always sacrifice battery power for performance or vice versa.

Mosquito repellent bracelets - a solution for the little ones
To protect yourself from mosquito bites without staining your skin or clothes - repellents in the form of bracelets do an excellent job with this task. These accessories are made from durable synthetic materials; manufacturers mainly use microfiber
. The fabric is soaked in essential oils of various plants, from lemon and lavender to rosemary and verbena, due to which it acquires a specific smell - this is the “secret weapon” of this type of mosquito repellent. The parameters of the bracelets vary (the width can reach from 10 to 15 mm), and a special clasp allows you to adjust the position of the accessory on your hand. For the little ones there is an option with fixation on the leg.
Benefits of mosquito repellent bracelets:
- keep skin and clothes clean;
- do not cause harm to health;
- effective within 1-2 weeks of use;
- safe for babies.
Features of application
In fact, the effect of the anti-mosquito bracelet begins at the very moment when it is “released” from its sealed packaging. This fact should be taken into account both when purchasing an accessory and during its operation. So, when removing the bracelet, it is advisable to immediately place it in a plastic bag
, blocking the access of oxygen. If this condition is not met, the declared 2 weeks of effectiveness of the bracelet may decrease significantly.
It is important to remember that the mosquito repellent bracelet has a rather narrow area of influence
. The pungent aroma of essential oils is emitted only by a thin strip of fabric on the wrist - accordingly, it is very difficult to guarantee complete protection against bites on the entire body. It has been proven that the vast majority of “bloodsuckers” prefer to avoid these accessories, however, especially “desperate” females may well ignore these inconveniences. Therefore, when going to the forest and other places with a large number of mosquitoes, it is better to use a spray or cream.
Note:
Also, to protect small children from mosquitoes,
special stickers
that can be fixed on clothes, pieces of furniture, a stroller, or directly on the baby’s skin. Impregnated with essential oils, these stickers effectively repel insects and last for about 4 hours.
No. 2 – Weitech WK-0600 CIX
Price: 7400 rubles
The device is on a fundamentally different level than all previous representatives of our top ultrasonic insect repellers.

Not only mosquitoes, but also spiders, rats and even cockroaches will instantly leave their long-established places, just so as not to hear these sounds. In general, one of the best devices of this type today, but its price is appropriate.

Scenario 3 – military operations in the area
This fight is best started at the very beginning of the season. In this case, you will be fighting against the vanguard of mosquitoes. Defeat them and the whole season will go smoothly.
We destroy the larvae
If you have been relaxing on your property for several years, then you probably know where the largest number of mosquitoes hide. Most likely these are wet places:
- ponds, swamps, puddles;
- basements and heating plants;
- bushes, grass, trees, etc.
Treat these areas with special chemicals. This will significantly reduce the number of mosquitoes on the site. True, only for a while. In a month, new ones will arrive, and you will have to fight with them again. In addition, the use of chemicals is always a certain risk. An error with the dosage can lead to irreversible consequences.
So what to do? Is it really possible to douse yourself from head to toe with sprays over and over again and burn all over the entire area of the spiral? This won't be necessary. Remember we promised to tell you how to protect your site for the whole summer? The moment has arrived.
