Citronella Outdoor Candles

While these candles are designed to deter insects outdoors, they are made with natural soy wax and are perfectly safe to use indoors as well. The rustic pottery container makes them a stylish addition to any room, though the citronella scent will be quite prominent.

The triple-wick design ensures an even melt pool across the entire surface of the 36oz candle. This prevents tunneling and maximizes the scent throw, which is essential for effective insect deterrence in larger outdoor spaces.

Yes, the 240-hour burn time is accurate, provided you maintain the wicks properly. To achieve this, keep the wicks trimmed to about a quarter-inch before each use and avoid burning the candle for more than four hours at a time.

The pottery container is durable and heat-resistant, but it can become warm to the touch after several hours of burning. It is best to place the candle on a stable, heat-safe surface and allow it to cool completely before attempting to move it.

Soy wax is a natural, clean-burning material, but it can be sensitive to strong gusts. If you are using the candle in a very windy area, the flames may flicker or smoke; placing it in a slightly sheltered spot will help maintain a consistent burn.
