Is that the thermacell you guys are talking about?

How long do the butane tanks and chemicals last?

5-8 total hours.

I normally go through 3-4 jumbo refills per season but I spend most evenings outside for 3-4 hours every night.

Thermo cell flat works. Take it camping and fishing. It works amazingly well.

Scorpions, tarantulas, and desert vipers, but at least the mosquitoes aren't bad.

in ~ 18 years in san diego county, i've seen exactly 1 scorpion. it was dead. never seen a tarantula in the wild... though i did see a big spider weaving a web between trees. i think it was going for birds.

as far as snakes, no worse than anywhere else. and far, far better than the water moccasins you have in the shithole areas of the country.
