A Candle a Day Keeps the Bugs Away

citronella

Summertime is ideal for parties – bonfires, patio soirées, and campouts rage on even into the early days of autumn. Unfortunately, those pesky mosquitoes seize every opportunity to feast on the bare ankles and necks of unsuspecting revelers. Mosquitoes emerge from the shade during twilight hours, no longer oppressed by the heat of the day. But most bug sprays have a strong odor that doesn’t do much to compliment perfume or cologne.

Citronella candles provide a welcome respite from mosquitoes and other insect pests while also shedding some light on the party. Citronella oil gives off a subtle, pleasant odor when burned. These candles make a thoughtful gift that can be appreciated by every partygoer equally.
