Nantucket Spider Bundle | Garden Repellent Sticks 14 Pack and Incense Stick Holder | Repels Mosquitoes & Flies | Long Lasting | Soapstone Block, Handmade Bamboo Based Sticks, Sun and Sand

We use one of these incense sticks on our small apartment balcony. Smells better than citronella candles and actually keeps the mosquitos away. The holder is nice too, solid enough that the stick doesn't get knocked over by the wind, but small enough to not get in the way.

After the yellow jackets kept tormenting us during dinners on our deck last month, I lit an old Burt's Bees Porch Incense stick, which worked surprisingly well to discourage the little monsters. When I used up the Burt's and couldn't buy more, I ordered two different brands of garden incense sticks from Amazon. The Nantucket Spider sticks worked best for us because they're easier to light and they produce more smoke. The variety of scents is nice, too. I've already ordered another package to have on hand, this time with the holder, which is worth the extra money.

The scent is AMAZING and not “bug spray” at all. I love being outside when these are lit. I use the brand’s stands and light three to place in a triangle around our sitting area. Keeps the bugs away, although occasionally some flies will bravely impose. They’re greeted with my trusty cheap fly swatter!

I think you would need several of these lit to truly keep away the bugs. Aesthetically pleasing tho, and the scent is mild and like citronella . They burn down quickly!

Great overall product- have used their bug spray that I picked up locally. Was happy to see online on Amazon for my local place two. Out of their product- very popular! Decided to try the outdoor sticks and pleasantly surprised...plus we love the stone incense holder that’s included.Deet free too.Very happy with this company- thanks you!

Pleasant smell and good burn rate. Lasted for almost an hour. Ash column will fall off as it burns so you might want to tap some off when it gets over an inch. Much cleaner and better than any citronella candles I’ve used.

This beats every other similar product that I’ve tried hands down

I don’t know that I would recommend these sticks. In order for them to burn continuously, you have to light it with enough fire that nearly requires a torch. And when they burn, the smoke only last the first 5 minutes. Afterwards, it just burns with no output— which means they have a short radius for how far they repel.I do like the incense block it came with (although it would be better if it was solid at the bottom so the stick wouldn’t stick out at the bottom).But all in all, they make me want to go back to the regular size mintronella sticks.
