    It says on the package that it works on mosquitoes and black flies. Does it have any effect on bee's and wasps?

    Just curious. Thanks.

    Hmmmmmmm.... I don't know. They work magnificantly on misquitos and things like that... but I never been around enough bees at one time to test it. LOL OK, let's look at it this way.... I was never stung by a bee while using my thermacells. LOL BUT.... I was never attacked by naked virgins while using my thermacells either. So use them sparingly. My thoughts are probably not... maybe.

    I guess that is settled. :bash: That is what I figured. I just bought one and have a lot of bees and wasps on the back deck. Can't wait to use while hunting this fall.
