These little tea lights work great! They are not overpowering, and they last a long time. Only used a few this past summer, as we had a very unusual summer - planning on using a BUNCH this coming spring/summer, hopefully! The ones I did use worked great at keeping mosquitoes away, and lasted for a very long time - at least 4-5 hours, if not more!
Kept the skitters away during Sukkoth. Not over powering and lasted a long time.
These candles are awesome! I'm actually buying them again. They might be small but with about 3 of them they do the job great. I was skeptical at 1st. I live in Florida and if you do as well then you understand what I mean when I say THESE MOSQUITOES ARE BADD. I can't even walk outside without getting swarmed or bit. I put 1 on the side of my doorstep and about 10 mins later GONE. Not to mention they last a really long time! I definitely recommend them. Btw the smell is not that bad but everyone is different
I bought this to keep flies away, so far it seem to be working, but honestly I'm not the biggest fan of the smell but it isn't to bad, it doesn't last to long tho, but it have 60 so I guess that's good
-Update-
I LOVE THOSE CANDLES, THEY REALLY DO KEEPS FLIES AND MOSQUITOES AWAY! I forsure will order more, or maybe buy another one that comes with more!
The smell tho I don't really care for but hey f*** the smell! It keeps the bugs away!!!
I live on my boat and spend a great deal of time outdoors enjoying the water and nature around me. An inevitability of that kind of living is MOSQUITOS.
I'm enjoying the atmosphere of the little lights in the evening when the little buggers come out, but I'm enjoying even more not having to endure the bugs.
I can't say they're 100% effective, but anecdotally can say that I feel they're very effective. I can also truthfully say that when I have them lit I am hardly bothered while my boating neighbors are getting eaten alive even with sprays.

Description
Fragrance may be a bit strong in order to achieve best possible results. This is not a fragrance candle, it is designed with the intent to achieve maximum results on insects. This item is lab tested for effectiveness on Mosquitos and insects. Our factory in Europe has more than 100 years of experience in the field. We use a very high-potent, concentrated Citronella oil. Some wax is used at the core of the candle to prevent the Citronella from smoking when burning as pure citronella oil cannot absorb in the wick on its own, after it's lit the wax and oil blend together to deliver beauty and effectiveness. Citronella oil is an all-natural product used as an insect repellant providing a safer alternative to chemical bug repellents. This oil is only a repellant, not an insecticide; it doesn't kill or otherwise harm bugs. It is effective against a wide variety of pests, including but not limited to flies, mosquitoes, and ticks. Its distinctive odor drives away some insects, while preventing others from identifying a host. Use Citronella candles around the perimeter where you want to be insect free. You should keep the candles lit for the entire duration of your event. For outdoor use, you must make sure that candles are placed in cups that will protect it from being extinguished. With these quality Tealights you can enjoy the warm glow of a fine candle and benefitting of the maximum safety that only tea-light candles offer. If you're a restaurant, party planner or just enjoy dining to the romantic touch of tealites, these quality long burning boughies (in French) will deliver the ultimate and lasting radiation of warmth while serving as an insect repellant at the same time. European made with a special technique to prevent early burnout of your TeaLights. Tea Lights are an efficient and, cost effective form of candle lighting for any event. Universal size of ½" tall x 1.5" diameter. Fits all standard tealite holders. Burns nice and clean to the last drop for 4 hours.
I ordered these citronella candles for the fourth of July. Kept all mosquitoes away and are perfect size for short time frames! These candles smell great while burning, but stink sitting in packaging like other reviews have stated. Almost like urine.
I GUESS THIS IS A PERSONAL GRIPE. THE PRODUCT DOES EVERYTHING IT IS CLAIMED TO DO. BUT FOR ME THE SCENT FROM THE CANDLES WAS BARELY DISCERNIBLE AS I EXPECTED SOMETHING STRONGER FROM PAST EXPERIENCES WITH CITRONELLA.
I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SELLERS. THEY HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY CONCERNED AND COURTEOUS. I WOULD BUY AGAIN IF THE SCENT OF CITRONELLA WAS STRONGER.
Awesome tea light candles and smells really good. I got it to keep the mosquito indoors away and so for it has done a really good job. Was skeptical as there were no reviews when I ordered but delivered on time. I recommend it.
Seems to be helping with mosquitos in Florida. We use them during dinner barbeques and outdoor movie nights. I notice a significant reduction in mosquitos when placing a bunch of these around. I also use them in conjunction with mosquito coils.
I gave 5 stars for the fast delivery. The tea light citronella candles burn about 3 hours. In hindsight, you'd have to burn an awful lot of tea candles at once to reap any benefit of keeping the mosquitoes or other pests away. I wouldn't purchase these again (from any merchant). I would, however, purchase other products from this merchant.
