HOWEVER DO NOT PUT IT IN THE GROUND BLIND WITH YOU! That sucker will fumigate you! I sit mine just outside my DB blind on the upwind side and it works just fine from there. Some of my buddies put theirs on top of their blind with good results too.

When hunting in a box or ground blind I'll cut it on for a while and then cut it off, and only relight once they start to come back.
If I leave it on it will start to irritate my throat- which can't be great to breath- it doesn't run mosquitoes off, it kills them. I've used it to drop dormant wasp in the predawn.
