I’m allergic to mosquitoes. Welt up with every bite. Even had to be rushed to urgent care because I got absolutely destroyed one summer. I tried this out because I was tired of putting all the chemicals on my skin. Unfortunately it wasn’t as effective as I hope for. I still was attacked and still walked about with a few bites on my skin. I will still be using this but along with the sprays and lotions that have worked before. Wish it was a bit more powerful.

I’ve been lighting the OFF! Mosquito Lamp on my Toronto balcony during evening content shoots for a few weeks, and it creates a nice mosquito-free zone up to 10 feet around without any sprays or strong citronella smell. Just pop in a refill mat, light the 6-hour candle, and the diffuser releases metofluthrin vapor that keeps bugs away quietly while adding a soft glow to outdoor hangouts. It’s easy to use, portable for patios or camping, and way better than buggy nights—perfect for relaxed summer vibes!

This lamp was good in the beginning, but it didn’t last. The coverage was very minimal, only a couple of feet around where it was placed. It is a candle so it’s somewhat safe, I don’t recommend lighting it around children. The scent it gives off is its typical citronella scent. Overall I wish the candle lasted longer and that the coverage was greater.
