Envirobug Midge Repellents: Effective Protection Against Midge Bite

Midges can be a significant pest in Australia. Especially for those living near natural water or have swimming pools/ponds in their gardens. Therefore, effective midge repellents can be a key purchase to ensure you can have comfortable nights out in your yard.

In this article, we’ll look at what midge repellent you can use for your home to ensure that you’re protected from midge bites.

Understanding the Threat of Midge Bug Bites

Biting midges are more of a pest than they are of anything else. Medically, they don’t transmit any diseases in Australia. However, that doesn’t mean that midge bites aren’t going to be annoying.

Midge bites are known to cause severe local allergic reactions and can be painful/irritating for many people.

While the severity can vary from person to person, people who are regularly exposed to midge bites tend to become desensitised eventually. Most people, with enough exposure, feel very little if any reaction at all.

Those who do not live in an area can find that they react badly to midge bites. 

Those that do react, can have red, swollen bites measuring 2-3 centimetres in diameter. Those bitten might not realise they’ve become a victim because itching and reactions can take several hours to start.

Itching can occur and these might turn bites into blisters, become weepy, and can last for days or weeks. Scratching the bites can cause secondary bacterial infections which might require medical treatment.

As a result of the potential of bites, midges can prevent many people from participating in outdoor activities or using their gardens. Therefore, effective control must be found for the pest.

Most snake repellers on the market use cheap components, which make irritating noises and - worse - can be unreliable, exposing their users to injury or death. What makes EnviroBug repellers so effective is that they change their vibration patterns unpredictably - ensuring snakes never get comfortable. This differs from other repellers, which can enable snakes to learn to ignore them over a period of months. EnviroBug's repellers have been developed from the ground up to be effective at keeping snakes away, as well as to last in tough Australian conditions. This means we have paid special attention to every single detail - up to and including the solar panel. The EnviroBug solar snake repeller incorporates a unique slanted panel, which enhances both its efficiency and toughness. We don't just want to sell you our repellers; we really care that they keep working for a long time.

$55.00 $79.99
Envirobug is proud to introduce our hassle-free, highly effective and contactless rodent repeller.  Superior to rodent traps and poisons, our device safely repels mice, rats and other pests in the home using state-of-the-art ultrasonic sound waves that only small pests can hear. After all, the best solution to pest problems is to prevent them in the first place! Mice, rats and other vermin are attracted to homes and sheds as they offer a dry and warm environment with easy access to food and water and plenty of nesting material. Prevent pests before they set up house and avoid the horror (and smell) of having them die in hard to get to places like in walls, behind furniture, fridges and stoves. How do they work? Simply plug in the EnviroBug 360-Degree Ultrasonic Pest Repeller and it begins to emit high electronic frequencies, which cannot be heard by the human ear, cats or dogs. It works by irritating rodents and other pests, making it uncomfortable for them to remain in the protected area. The 360-degree repeller can cover up to 370 square metres in an open unobstructed area. Don’t forget - they are completely safe and will not annoy your beloved pet cat or dog.  Where should I use them? The clearer the area is of solid objects, the further the ultrasonic frequencies will penetrate. While Envirobug 360-degree repellers are designed specifically to repel mice, rats and other rodents, customers have also had success keeping away a range of other small creatures including bugs, ants, cockroaches, mosquitoes and spiders. Please note: it's normal for pest activity to increase slightly after installation, as they are disturbed and looking for somewhere else to live. They will shortly go away! Pests gather where there is food, shelter and warmth. We recommend pest repellers in the following rooms: Kitchen Pantry Laundry Garage Dining Room Storage room Animal feed shed Roof cavities Farm sheds  Features: Silent operation Up to 370 square metre effective range Operation light indicator Test switch Low power cost power usage 12-month full replacement warranty Completely safe for cats & dogs Product Specifications Input Voltage: 240V Frequency Range: 25-65KHz Mode of repulsion: Ultrasonic waves Wave Pressure: 90dB Material: ABS Effective coverage: up to 370 square metres Height: 7.5cm Width: 12cm Package Contents: 1 x 360 Degree Ultrasonic Pest Repeller
