    Keeps the mosquitoes away

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product does what it says it keeps the mosquitoes away it does have a very strong scent of citronella so if your sensitive to smells I definitely wouldn’t recommend it doesn’t work when your to far away from it but for a small group of people sitting around chit chatting this is the perfect solution to get relief from the mosquitoes it does burn slow which means it does last

    Works like it should

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This OFF backyard candle works good, it did help keep mosquitoes away around the recommended perimeter. If you have a lager space I would recommend more than one candle but for my small patio it worked wonders .

    Great smelling candle for outdoor. Help keeps mosquitoes away

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Citronella candle is great for spending time outdoors. It has pleasant scent and help reduce mosquitoes around the backyard. I noticed few bugs while it was lit, although it doesn’t completely eliminate them for bigger backyard. Although a nice candle to have for summer nights outside.

    Amazing successful product

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have always had a bad mosquito problem in our backyard, but our backyard is too nice not to use so we’ve just been dealing with it since we could not find a product that actually worked well with our kids. Once we found this, it became an absolute game changer. It does not bother our kids or myself and my husband. And it seems to keep the bugs away dramatically better. We tested it during one day, which is the worst of the bug and mosquito days as it obviously kicks the bugs up from the ground, and it did not affect our kids negatively, and I kept the bugs away from them for the most part. I would say this is an absolute success.

    No More Mosquitos In My Yard!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is great, it has a light citrusy smell that is just enough to drive all of the bugs and mosquitoes away. I have extremely pale skin so mosquitoes seem to be attracted to me like a magnet, but when I use this it helps so much. It burns for so long, burns for over 40 hours. Perfect for backyards and gatherings around dusk or dawn to ensure most mosquitoes are kept away. Overall highly recommended!

    Smells nice

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been burning this outdoor, citronella candle in my backyard when we’re hanging out or barbecuing. it smells nice, is not overwhelming and it does seem to help keep the mosquitoes away.

    It works

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This candle was easily placed in a package and you can just slide it out. The candle is in a nice sturdy container. I placed the candle on my deck and use it while I’m outside and it keeps the mosquitoes away. I love it because prior to the candle, the mosquitoes was instantly attacking me. I instantly saw a difference soon as I start burning the candle. I already got another one to burn at the other end of the table. This candle works and its affordable. It burns for a long time well it does says upto 40 hours. The candle does exactly as its described.

    Good mosquito repellent

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am always up for trying anything to get rid of the mosquitoes. I am outside a lot and tend to get bitten up immediately. I do believe this candle helps keep the mosquitos away. Not all but enough that I don’t feel like I am being eaten alive while outside. I have been using this a few weeks now and there is still a lot of life left in the candle so it will last awhile. The scent is very minimal and not too strong or offensive which I appreciate. Overall, I will keep using this and hope they learn to stay away.
