I just hang it out of my pocket and it keeps the skeeters away. I live in Florida and walk near lots of water so in the hot weather it really helps.

One that saved me just in time silverfish will not eat the paper or the book pages if you put bounce in the boxes you are packing. A postman puts sheet in pocket, repels wasps. Repels mosquitoes ... on kids etc. Wow, this item is wonderful. I went and bought them just to pack up my books and papers. SILVERFISH EAT PAPER. Roaches don't.

I learned this first using coffee filters but with the dryer sheets the flowers look better.

When the season comes for my family to use those clothes they always smell fresh and clean and ready to wear.
