Love them

Would Recommend

Burn them on my outdoor patio all summer long. Also used them in my kitchen in the early to late spring to keep the flies away.

Poor Design for an Outdoor Candle

Would Not Recommend

Very disappointed with this candle. I love the scent which is why I bought it. The design is awful. The wick flame goes out with the slightest breeze. I would not buy this again, or recommend it to anyone.

In addition to the poor design and the flame blowing out constantly, I bought it to repel bugs. It was only after I bought it that I saw it does not repel mosquitoes. I thought that was the point, especially from a brand that sells bug spray.

Good burn

I like the candles to last and this has a good burn rate. We have them on our porch and light them in the evening when the mosquitoes seem to be most active.

Must have summer item

These citronella candles are a must have for your patio or porch in the summer to ward away all insects so you can enjoy your outside space. They work so well! I replace mine every year so I can enjoy sitting outside! They spray is good to have as well but the candles works way better from my experiences!

Kind of a let down

I bought the bucket to burn on the table when we are outside. We still had bugs coming in to join our camp! I was hoping to see that when we sat together it would be nice to have a no insects around.

We just keep buying them!

We started out with the single citronella bucket but being that we live in a swampy, woodsy southern state and love to spend time outdoors with friends and family on our patio, we needed more than one and these get the job done!

Mosquito

We use these on 4th of July for a party we throw. We live around alot of shrubs so the mosquitos get pretty bad but with these it helps to eliminate some of them so they aren't swarming us all night.

Smells good!

These smell awesome because I love citronella. However, we didn't notice any less mosquitoes because of them. The next morning there were plenty of dead one dried into the wax.
