1.0 out of 5 stars They didn't work for me, either!, August 6, 2009

This review is from: Bug Band Family Pack - 4PK,(Bug Band) (Baby Product)

I ordered the family pack in hopes to protect my kids and myself from the endless mosquito bites we get everytime we go outside. Just to be safe, I put on TWO bands - one on each leg - and I set out to do yard work. (The package makes you believe that 1 band per person is enough to keep bugs away). As I began working, I carefully observed a bunch of little black gnats fly around my ankles. They landed on my legs and crawled all over the bugbands as if they weren't there! After shooing them off, I continued my yardwork, but had to stop because I had received 4 mosquito bites (2 on each leg). I didn't care to find out how many more I would get at this point! I really, really wanted to like this product because I hate spraying on bug repellent. I don't know why these bands don't work on me, or on my 7yo son (who also came in with numerous mosquito bites; and he had bands on both legs, too). The product was a great idea - the bands are well made, go on easily and stay on, and they SMELL like they would work. But they did not do what was promised on the package, and that alone is why I gave it a low rating. I know I was willing to give these a try based on the positive reviews I've read, but unfortunately, they didn't work for me at all. I spent almost $15 for the family assorted package since I have 4 kids. Now I wish I had bought 1 and tried it out first before wasting my money. Maybe the people who have success with these are being too active for the mosquitoes to land on them. And maybe these bands are not effective for those, like myself, who know they are mosquito-magnets. I was truly hoping these were going to work, but they didn't. Sorry!

Mosquitoes love me. So I tried the BugBand bracelet. The little bloodsuckers left me absolutely alone. It was great to go outside and not look like I was slapping myself silly.

These are great - I have 2 very active boys who love to be outside! Mosquitos have been horrible this year so I bought these thinking that just a few less bites would be great. I was pleasantly surprised when they came in with none! Definately worth it!
