Each patch will give up to 6 hours of protection from mosquitoes and other blood thirsty bugs. The mosquito patch, when squeezed, releases a pleasant fragrance that repels mosquitoes and other flying insects for hours.
Family Buzz patches are well suited for infants and children and they are the only product available that can be used for newborns as protection while outdoors.
These unique patches are patented and are supported by Canadian, European and American Testing. They are registered in Canada under Natural Product Number (NPN) #120344. They also are fully backed by insurance in Canada and the USA. Buzz Patches have been proven scientically through testing at North Carolina University and are microencapsulated.
We recommend the use of two patches (one behind your neck and one behind your knee) to give you normal coverage outdoors. You can also stick the patch on strollers on either side for great protection to the passenger within.
Since there is no contact between the essential oils and the skin, this product is 100% safe and harmless, even for children. Unsqueezed patches remain good for years until you are ready to use them.
We use these in the summer and while away on vacation.
THESE HAVE AN EXPIRY DATE ON THE BOX, BUT NEVER EXPIRE WHILE KEPT IN THE CELLOPHANE PACKAGE. ONCE THE PACKAGE IS OPENED, THE PACTHES ARE EFFECTIVE FOR ONE YEAR.
