How to prepare a powerful insect repellent candle

Flies and insects can be very annoying, and keeping them away is very important, as they can transmit diseases.

In this article we explain how to prepare a simple oil-based candle, with natural components capable of keeping flies and insects away.

You need: jar with metal cap, a nail, citronella oil, a piece of burlap (for the fuse).

1. Get a jar with a metal cap, and wash it well
2. Make a hole in the lid of the jar using a nail
3. Stick a piece of cloth (which must be longer than the can) through the hole – it must touch the bottom of the can and will be the fuse.
4. Fill the jar halfway with citronella oil, and light the fuse.
