Personally, I have yet to find any citronella product that can effectively repel mosquito - live plants, essential oil, candle, etc. We don't have severe mosquitos problems but enough to be annoying when sitting outside in the summer.

That said, if nothing else, we still use citronella candle because the scent is pleasant. Just not as a repellant.

Thanks OP

Got these a couple weeks ago. Limit was one two pack but you could order one set of each color.
These are big candles. Should last many hours. 3 wicks. Great deal. The black and cream are nice. The other one looked good in the photo but when I got it looks different. Looks like the old silver metal car wash buckets. The way OSB plywood looks but with metal. More silver looking than the darker color in the photos.

Someone had commented on a reddit sub (bath and body works) that they got these candles but they did nothing for mosquitos as well as had very little throw. I'm trying to see if these are worth buying, irrespective of the low price. Any personal experience will be appreciated. Thanks and reps.

I assume the pre-order video game method still works for free shipping?

Apparently you don't live in Southern California. LMAO We do have a severe mosquito problem with this new breed of "ankle biters." No noise, but bite ankles all day long, repeatedly! Two little guys will bite you and guest all day, all night! No ankles? They'll settle for arms legs or whatever. Lotion will help, but these guys will skim the surface and look for that one little spot you didn't coat, and bite you there. Very aggressive. Supposedly came from Japan a couple of years ago.
