Cant tell you. The product was lost during a transit on its way to Oman from Russia... It was never recovered....

It worked fairly quick for me. I had a bbq & the flies were there but no-one complained of getting bit by mosquitos, I sprayed the day before. I also don't water it down as much as it says. & I spray the tree trunks & some of the lower branches of trees. If it rains you will have to re-spray.

Thank you for the reply, but I was referring more to the mesh itself if it is fine enough to keep very tiny bugs out.

Vey good question. I have many set up that would come in contact with mosquitos. None had any visable ones on there. I check close to protect the garden

I love this stuff! I have not noticed that it kills or keeps away bees or butterflies. We have been inundated with mosquitos and can't go outside without 20 to 30 buzzing around us and our dogs. The Mosquito Barrier does not get rid of all mosquitos, but definitely makes going outside much more tolerable.

If you have mosquitos it will attract the ones around and the zapped should take care of them. Im out by a farm and we have thousands of bugs and it works. Az shouldn't have too many so it should work well.

We love ours. Only had it last year but yes it does a good job with bugs. So far no problems.

It is not airtight, but I believe it will keep out bugs. At least no bugs have gotten in mine

It does do a good job keeping out the bugs, so long as one of my dogs does not stand holding it open. The only problem I had with it is the tabs that snap together do not all hold well. I zipped a couple screws in to hold it together it several spots.

Yes it is very good at killing the mosquito lava eggs. I use it all over my back yard and in some spots of the backyard it is vey low area which accumale water when it rains a lot. I have few to no Mosquitos compared to a year ago.

I haven't noticed any heat but it seems to have certainly cut down the mosquito problem in my yard. It also draws in lady bugs, moths, mosquito eaters and such so every morning I open the unit and set them free. The unit pretty well destroys the mosquitos as it seems they are too fragile to last in it overnight.

It depends on your chemistry. Personally, I was disappointed in the product. I'm in Florida and it did not protect against no-see-ums completely. However, bugs are drawn to me more than anyone I'm with at any given time, and it did work for the others. Seems Deep Woods Off or Bullfrog are the things that work for my skin, although one contains DEET and the other is a spray.

It is known for repelling Moth and Bed Bugs....any bugs that are cave dewellers, dark places. and like moisture like moths and bed bugs it does well with...so insects like mosquitos it will not do well....Cockroach I do not know...I assume it will but can't find any data on it.

Yes it does. It is a natural way to repel mosquitos and other flying creatures.

Your best defense indoors is an electric fan. Mosquitoes are not good upwind flyers

My concern was for a product that would repel mosquitoes; I haven't encountered no-see-ums or other blood-suckers. I suggest that you go to Avon's Web site and ask them. I'm sure they would know BUG GUARD'S capabilities.

The 17/14 will prevent mosquitos but if you have n0-see-ums in your area you probably want a finer mesh. To stop them from coming through the spaces between floor boards you can use an outdoor carpet. You can also cover the areas where the bugs can get in from the bottom such as using more screen or boarding over the entire area underneath the deck. Wood will not last too long in this position if water gets in. Another problem is any debris that falls through the gaps will be stuck on the new barrier.
