There are many options on how to keep the bugs away this summer. Here are a few to try:
Citronella
tealights
and
votives
are handy because they can be used in standard
tealight
and votive holders to spread the fragrance around the area for bug protection. Citronella pillars are a nice alternative to make summer candle displays functional as well.
Antica
Farmacista
has a new fragrance, Blades of Grass.While it does contain citronella oil, it seems it would be the least effective as a bug
repellent
.
Lampe
Berger has a new fragrance, Summer Night.It is the same scent as Ocean Breeze (a fruity cocktail blended with the freshness of grapefruit, embellished by a warm and lingering trail of precious wood) but it also contains a bug
repellent
.According to the bottle, Summer Night will provide 100% elimination of bugs for an 8 hour period after 30 minutes of use.That's a strong statement.In all fairness, it would depend on where you use it - in a small room with no doors or windows open or outdoors on your patio.Even though the statement seem over
ambitious
, we do think this would be the most effective
option
for outside bug elimination.
