So I have<\/span> one of those unfortunate blood types that makes me extremely susceptible to mosquito bites. To give you a sense of how bad it is, I got attacked three times while installing the mosquito repellent system I\u2019m reviewing here. Big, nasty, red welts that lingered for days.<\/p>\n

I usually take extreme measures to avoid mosquitos, including topical products like OFF!<\/a> and visits from a professional mosquito control company that sprays citronella all over my backyard every three weeks. Tragically, none of this has been of much help. For most of the summer, I look like Patient Zero for some kind of pox.<\/p>\n

This summer I decided I\u2019d had enough. Enter Thermacell\u2019s LIV, an installed mosquito blocker system that can scale to fit your deck or yard, regardless of shape and size.<\/p>\n

LIV is not a mosquito-killing system\u2014you\u2019ll need zappers and poisons for that\u2014but rather a repeller technology. It works based on a chemical called metofluthrin, which gives off a vapor that mosquitos apparently hate when heated. Metofluthrin isn\u2019t unique to Thermacell; it\u2019s also the active ingredient in OFF! mosquito lamps<\/a> and wearable devices, among other products.<\/p>\n
