Skeeter Away Patches
I live in South LA and the insects can be pretty bad here year round to include mosquitos. I purchased some "skeeter" patches to help repel them when out on duty/training or recreationally. I apply a couple drops of 100% Deet and slap on my jacket/top or hat and it works great.
Once again MATBOCK delivers tier one product and performance…Great job
Skeeter patch kit
So far these are the purchase of the summer. I work next to water and bugs are a big problem. I threw these on and they have really helped. Thanks !
Pretty slick
Great way to keep the bugs off without having to spray yourself or gear down. Experimenting with different bug repellents.
Mosquitoes Beware!
Mosquitos run in fear when I enter their AO, I have yet to take contact from a single enemy mosquito since putting these patches on my kit. I soaked them in repellent well over a month ago and they are still juicy and pulling security. Thank y’all for making a tough product that’s standing up to everything I throw at it.

Small ingenious solution to a ever present problem. Simple and effective. Works well and keep the little monsters away.

Chad, thanks for the great review! We are glad there aint no bugs on you!
Initial Observations
Im rating at four stars because I haven’t had the opportunity to put these to use yet but I will provide my initial observations. The package comes with two American Flags and two square patches. The two flags are a tad smaller than the standard flags worn by service-members; not a big deal. All patches seem to be of great craftsmanship. No loose strings or anything crazy. I look forward to putting these to use in the coming months before all the mosquitos hide away here in North Carolina.
bye bug
Have used it for multiple month-long field problems. Has shown to be an effective means to maintain bug repellent. Retains deet products for multiple days. Obviously won’t save you from mauling via ants & eating spiderwebs. Breaking brush & crawling around has been slowly bleeding my skeeter patches out, as in the black stuffing getting pulled out. However, Velcro & stitching have held out thus far. Haven’t utilized the small polka-dot patches as much, since one got pulled off on a night walk. Would be neat to add IR to the flags, by some means, in future additions? Perhaps a baseline permethrin treatment could be added as well?
Best patches on my kit!!!
I bought these to keep those pesky skeeters away and it sure does that. Used them all summer and love them!! Can’t recommend them enough!
Total Game Changer!
These have made hiking in mosquito season bearable again! And all of the bug repellents that I have used with them last longer when applied to the patches as opposed to your skin or clothing. Could not recommend them more!

The Patch came with 2 flag patches and 2 little square patches. The patches look great and work awesome. They have a kind of felt like stuff inside that holds the bug repellant. This is a great way to keep the bugs off and also keep the greasy bug spray film off you and your gear. If you've ever ruined the coating on a pair of oakleys with citrus bug spray you know what im talking about.
