Buh-bye to the buzz.
When balmy nights call for lounging under the stars, one thing’s for certain: Your buzzy mosquito friends will be sure to keep you company. Keep those uninvited guests at bay with a citronella coil, sold as a set of 2. It works like this: You light up one end, and the coil lets off a slow-and-steady stream of citronella-infused smoke (with burn time up to 150 hours). The lemony scent of citronella, a grass native to Southeast Asia, masks the human odors that make you so enticing to mosquitos. Citronella is non-toxic to humans and animals, so you don’t even have to worry about harming those pesky bugs. Each order includes a set of 2.
What’s especially brilliant: it can be hung at various heights, allowing the fragrant, bug-repelling smoke to disperse evenly for full coverage. Plus, they make for quirky, eye-catching decorations.
Heads up! Do not leave your coil in the rain, submerge in water or leave outside for too long. The coil is fragile and cannot withstand large amounts of water.
