ColemanPine Scented Citronella Candle with Wooden Crackle Wick, Long-Lasting Outdoor Candle for Campfires, Patios, Picnics, 6 oz Tin, Pack of 6

Camping last year, we got eaten by mosquitos. My wife had bites/welts all over her face so bad that she looked deformed. And yes - we had applied DEET based repellant - did not work so well...For this year, I bought a six-pack of these candles and spread them throughout our campsite. I lit them each late afternoon / early evening and let them burn until everyone was in the tents for sleeping. We did not have any mosquito issues - not a single bite.On the last day it was taking us longer to pack everything up and we ran into the evening. We had already packed the candles and were unable to light them. The mosquitos arrived in full force and with vengeance. My wife and kids sat in the car with the doors closed while I rushed to finish packing the truck and endured countless mosquito bites.I will never camp again without these candles.

It works and the smell is not offensive. Burns evenly. Love the wooden crackle wick. Small and powerful. Can place strategically without disturbing your outdoor space. The only drawback-my overhead outdoor fan can extinguish the flames if on high speed.

The media could not be loaded. These seem to work. I had a cloud of gnats buzzing around my face. They left when I lit this candle. Sometimes the bugs are drawn to that candle and drown in the wax. That happened in Sequoia NP. I pick them out with a small twig. It's important to keep bugs and debris out of the candle or you might have a tiny bonfire as one reviewer discovered when using it as an ashtray.These candles seem lasty. They don't crackle much but that's not why I bought them. The wood wick does make a nice broad flame. They're good for outdoor ambience. I use them on the table in my garden when I am outside. For camping the compact lidded tin makes them easy to pack. They are a garden and camping staple.

They work!

I think they work a little, but they smell great.

Nice scent

Great, exactly what i ordered

Smells great, burns completely and evenly and keeps mosquitoes and other bugs away better than anything I've tried. Definitely recommend buying these.
