ColemanPine Scented Citronella Candle

I bought the six pack of candles because the epidemic of these pesky mosquitoes brought the onslaught of legs and arms continuously getting bitten! Tried the bug zapper but that was only catching flies. I couldn't even sit in my living room watching TV while the little punks kept feasting on my legs and arms, and I'm a big guy so these little pests can have a buffet of a time with me lol. So I looked up citronella candles and this was one that caught my eye for the fact it was a six pack I couldn't resist. As soon as I got them I lit it up in my living room and within an hour these mosquitoes just disappeared! I put one in my room and they were gone as well, no more buzzing around my ears! They smell great too! Lasts for roughly 2 days if you let it burn all the way out. I burn them only when I'm in the room. But must keep burning them consistently or they will see that the smell has gone away and will come back and you will have to wait an hour for them to get the hint again. I don't have any major issues with the candles, I know these are technically made for outside but if you are careful enough you can avoid burning your house down making sure nothing is around them at least by a foot MIMIMUM! And at least put them on a plate or something to pick them up with as once the flame gets deep into the container it will make it completely hot to the touch, it is a tin can after all. I picked it up with my hand the very first time and almost burned my hand but I am used to very hot things so it didn't bother me too much. But only grabbed it for like 3 seconds. They are small and come with lids which makes it nice cuz you could repurpose the cans for other things down the road if you are a crafter or like to keep loose change or something. All in all these are great to buy and for the price you really can't go wrong!

These are the only brand we buy now. They do a decent job at deterring mosquitos. And we like the pine or campfire scent. Overall good product. We’ve added a little backyard fan to support keeping the bugs at bay.

I like them. They work well and smell good.

They work. They last. Small and effective.

Smells decent and I really like the individual compact tins over the bigger ones. For the size they seem to cover a good size area judging by how far away you can smell them but they definitely don’t keep all the bugs away. The burn time is about average. The price was decent and I would buy them again mostly for the size.

These last a long time, and are easy to light. The smell is decent and I like the small form factor. Easy to pack in a camp bag for a weekend outing but I mainly use them on the screened porch. Screened porch keeps out most things but this is double insurance to keep them away.

These burned long and bright. They work great as regular candles. However, I don't think they did anything to keep bugs away. We had all 6 burning at once and were still getting bit. However, they last forever and created a nice ambiance.

We bought these to go around our outside patio when we hang out or have people over. Strong scent, gets the bugs away and when used with a thermacell, not bites. Recommend!!!!
