Thermacell Patio Shield Mosquito Protection Device (Glacial Blue)

The item is a boxed Thermacell Patio Shield Mosquito Protection device, specifically in the 'Glacial Blue' color variation, as indicated on the packaging. The box design is predominantly white and light blue, with prominent branding for 'Thermacell Patio Shield Mosquito Protection' at the top. A stylized mosquito with a red 'no' symbol is displayed, emphasizing its purpose. The front of the box features an image of the device itself, a cylindrical unit with a teal or glacial blue body and a dark, possibly black or charcoal, textured top. Textual claims on the box highlight that it 'REPELS MOSQUITOES WITHOUT SPRAY,' is 'SCENT FREE,' and offers '100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEED.' A '15 FT ZONE' indicator is visible, suggesting the coverage area of the device. Below the main image, a smaller graphic depicts what appears to be the replaceable repellent mats, labeled 'Contains'. The bottom edge of the box includes fine print, partially legible, indicating 'KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN' and 'CAUTION'. The packaging itself appears to be in new or near-new condition, with no visible tears, dents, or significant wear. The vibrant colors and clear graphics suggest a modern manufacturing style, likely post-2010. The overall presentation is clean and consumer-oriented, typical of modern pest control products. The item falls into the category of outdoor living and pest control solutions, designed for personal or small-group outdoor use.
