Mosquito Rain Alert

by

The song “Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head” takes on a completely new significance when it comes to mosquitoes.   Rainy Days Mean More Mosquitoes
According to the March/April 2012 Science Magazine, some mosquitoes and other small insects are capable of “dancing” through the air between raindrops during a light rain.   Heavy rains are a different story.   If insects haven’t sought shelter, raindrops will typically knock them to the ground.
Have your Bite-Lite® Natural Mosquito Repellent Candles ready because after a rain, mosquitoes that have survived the downpour will be ready to find you once they have toweled off.

“Ach, an corrmhíol diabhalta sin!” (Ach, that devilish mosquito!) – Ireland’s Mosquitoes Celebrate St Paddy’s Day!

by

It is about time to start thinking of Saint Paddy and the wearing of the green.  Celebrations are planned in the United States and certainly in Ireland, which has a somewhat mild climate.   But, did you know that Ireland has its share of mosquitoes?

The following was extracted from a report by Health Protection Surveillance Centre, 25-27 Middle Gardiner St, Dublin 1, Ireland.

Have we mosquitoes in Ireland?
We have mosquitoes in Ireland, the commonest being Culex pipiens. They can be seen hovering over water and marshy places in the late summer and early autumn, especially in the south and east of the country.

There are even blog postings related to mosquitoes in Ireland.

Hi,
I live in Co Leitrim and today captured what I was convinced was a mosquito…..I showed my mam and brothers but they wouldn’t believe me….now I know it was most definitely a mosquito….I was also getting rather large bites recently, mainly at night time and couldn’t believe that these were Midge bites…. however they were obviously mosquitoes!   I dont know what to make of all this…. xD

I captured a mosquito today in Kerry.   I checked mosquito images and this guy is one for sure.   There were about ten of them in the sitting room.

In 2009, a program was announced by the Health Protection Surveillance Centre, in collaboration with University College Cork, to undertake the trapping and identification of Ireland’s 16 known species of mosquitoes.

So, when you are out celebrating Saint Patrick’s Day and wearing green, remember the green and black labels on those Bite-Lite® Natural Mosquito Repellent Candles and consider that warmer weather is just around the corner.

You don’t want to be saying, as they do in Ireland, “Ach, an corrmhíol diabhalta sin!” (Ach, that devilish mosquito!)

Warm winter could mean bad summer for mosquitoes

by

MATTHEWS, NC (WBTV) – The mild winter has been great for folks who don’t look forward to being cooped up inside. But the warm temperatures could be setting the stage for more mosquitoes in the summer.

“With all the rainfall we’ve had, it’s keeping everything moist and it’s not really drying out.    So if it stays like that in the spring, I would imagine that mosquitoes are going to be a little worse this year,” says Randy Peck of Mosquito Squad based in Matthews.    Peck says the lack of deep freezes and plenty of moisture could make for a problem.

Mosquitoes and their eggs are typically killed during extended periods of freezing weather.    So far, the Charlotte area hasn’t had many days where the temperature falls below 30 degrees.

Peck suggests getting started now to help curb what could become a problem.    He suggests turning over any items that are holding standing water outside your home.   Even tiny amounts could mean a ripe breeding ground for the biting bugs.

A female mosquito can lay as many as 400 eggs in just a teaspoon of water.

Bite-Lite® Candles – a Star Attraction at Academy Awards Event!

by

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Bethel, CT, February 25, 2012…. Bite-Lite® Natural Mosquito Repellent Candles and its now famous monkey mascot were front and center at an Academy Awards celebration in Beverly Hills, CA.   This honor was a direct result of the rave reviews for Bite-Lite, LLC following a successful appearance at this month’s Grammy’s Red Carpet event.

The Academy Awards recognize the best actors, directors, producers, and scores of other professionals for their outstanding performances and contributions to the motion picture industry.    Bite-Lite, LLC presented an exclusive, special-edition candle to award nominees and other celebrities at a private pre-event celebration at the luxurious L’ermitage Hotel, in Beverly Hills.   Based on the overwhelming feedback, it is clear that the Bite-Lite® candle brand is a favorite of the best in the film business, and now has “star power”.

Bite-Lite® natural repellents are the only candles that look great, smell great, and repel mosquitoes at the same time.    These mosquito candles contain a unique combination of lemongrass and spearmint essential oils, the key components of a patent pending Cloak & Scatter® technology.   Test results show that the active ingredients in Bite-Lite® candles repel nearly three times the number of mosquitoes compared to regular citronella candles.

As a pool of wax forms beneath the lighted wick (usually within about 20 minutes), the active ingredients are released and form a protective “shield” that penetrates the area and discourages mosquitoes from entering this protected zone.   By placing a number of candles around the desired area, you will enjoy a delicious scent and sparkling flame, and provide effective protection from biting mosquitoes.   Unlike other mosquito repelling candles on the market, Bite-Lite®’s unique all-natural candles produce no soot, smoke, or unpleasant odors.

Currently, these candles are sold through independent garden centers, hardware stores, outdoor living centers, other natural-product retailers, and on the Bite-Lite® website.   The nationwide buzz continues to grow as these “hard to find” candles become easier to find, using the store locator on www.bite-lite.com.

The candles are offered in four different styles: a soy tin ($5.99 msrp), a votive 3-pack ($6.99 msrp), a soy jar ($12.99 msrp), and a large fluted luminary ($19.99 msrp).

Bite-Lite, LLC, a privately held company located in Bethel, Connecticut, was established in 2010 to develop and market improved insect control products.   You can learn more about these fantastic, unique candles at www.bite-lite.com.

A Mosquito Love Story

by

We have spent lifetimes defining the elusive chemistry between people.  Artists have painted pictures, and poets have dedicated sonnets.

Scientists have now committed time, money, and technology, trying to determine what attracts mosquitoes.   Over 400 different compounds were examined.   The scientists identified certain elements of our body chemistry, that, when found in excess on the skin’s surface, make mosquitoes swarm closer.

Mosquitoes’ Personal Checklist of Preferences

  • Carbon Dioxide is a far reaching scent, especially strong in pregnant women and heavy set people.
  • Mosquitoes also target people who produce excess amounts of certain acids, such as uric acid.
  • Lactic acid from your sweat glands.
  • These substances can trigger mosquitoes’ sense of smell, luring them to land on unsuspecting victims.
  • Mosquitoes have been around for 170 million years — and more than 175 known species in the U.S., these shrewd summertime pests clearly aren’t going to disappear any time soon.
  • The very best way to combat mosquitoes, based on this new scientific research, is to disable mosquitoes sensors.   Bite-lite® Natural Mosquito Repellent Candles do just that.   Key essential oils, when found in combination, effectively disable the mosquito’s sensors.   These natural repellents represent that solution.   Bite-lite® candles  are exceptionally effective, smell wonderful,  and look elegant.    These candles are three times more effective than standard Citronella candles.

You can purchase our natural repellent candles at your local Retailer or on our  Products page.
