Its convenient tin makes it handy to move around from your front porch to back deck or anywhere in your yard, and its lid puts out the flame and keeps your candle like new for future use.

Are mosquito repellent candles safe?

For the most part, mosquito repellent candles, like this DEET-free Murphy's Naturals one, are safe; however, keep in mind, they’re not intended to be used indoors as they can become a fire hazard if they are. 

How long will this Murphy's Naturals Mosquito Repellent Candle, DEET free last?

This bug repellent candle will burn clean for up to 30 hours, but should only be used three hours at one time. We recommend buying multiple candles if you need to protect an area for a full day, so you can switch them out as needed.
