The candle has a total burn time of up to 24 hours.
Citriodiol is a natural, plant-derived ingredient used for its insect-repelling properties, effective against midges and mosquitoes.
This candle is designed for outdoor use. While it is clean-burning, it should only be used in well-ventilated areas and never unattended.
The aluminum container is lightweight and sealable, making it convenient for travel. Once the candle is fully burned, the container can be cleaned and repurposed or recycled.
The scent is designed to deter insects. If it is noticeable, try placing the candle further away from your seating area or in a location with better air circulation.
Store the candle in its original aluminum container with the lid sealed, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
The candle is specifically formulated to repel midges and mosquitoes. Its effectiveness against other insect types may vary.
Ensure the candle is placed in a location with minimal wind. Check that the Citriodiol content is still effective, which is generally maintained throughout the burn time. For larger areas, consider using multiple candles.
Trim the cotton wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting. If excessive smoking persists, extinguish the flame, allow it to cool, and re-trim the wick.
Ensure the wick is exposed and dry. Use a long match or lighter to ignite the wick. If the wick appears too short, it might need to be slightly teased out.
This is normal due to the burning process. Always handle the container with care after extinguishing the flame and allow it to cool completely before touching or moving it.
To set up your Lifesystems Midge & Mosquito Repellent Candle, simply remove the lid from the aluminum container. Ensure the candle is placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from flammable materials. For optimal performance, place the candle where the slight breeze can help distribute the repellent aroma. It is compatible with most outdoor settings such as patios, balconies, campsites, and gardens. To care for the candle, always extinguish the flame properly and allow it to cool before replacing the lid. Store in a cool, dry place. Trim the cotton wick to approximately 1/4 inch before each use for a cleaner burn. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
