Overview
Two-pack of 8 oz citronella outdoor candles from OFF!, model 668630, designed to reduce the presence of mosquitoes during patio and backyard use with roughly 25 to 30 hours of burn time per candle.
This is marketed as ambiance and mosquito deterrent for outdoor gatherings such as barbecues and summer evenings, not as an EPA-registered repellent. Burn time is listed as up to 25 hours in the bullet points and up to 30 hours in the description, so actual time will land somewhere in that range depending on conditions. It relights like a standard candle rather than needing a wick trim or special handling.
- 8 oz size, two candles per pack
- Citronella scented wax
- Up to 25 to 30 hours burn per candle
- Designed for patio and backyard use
Who it's for
Good for anyone hosting on a patio or in a backyard who wants a citronella-scented candle for atmosphere alongside other mosquito control. Not a substitute for a DEET or picaridin repellent if mosquito pressure is heavy.
Pros and cons
- Reusable, can be relit for multiple sessions
- Two candles per pack for extended coverage
- Doubles as ambient patio lighting
- Burn time estimate is inconsistent across the listing, 25 vs 30 hours
- Scent-based deterrent, not a registered repellent
Performance notes
The candle works like any standard wax candle, lit with an open flame and reusable across multiple evenings since it can be relit. The citronella scent is the active deterrent element, described as reducing the presence of mosquitoes and insects nearby rather than eliminating them outright.
