(Choose The Right Fragrance)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
When I first built my deck, the bugs were a nightmare! We couldn\u2019t enjoy a cookout or relax at night without getting bitten. I was determined to find a way to keep them away from me and my kids without the annoying bug zapper sound or having to clean up dead bugs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thankfully, I found out that scented candles can help repel them. Scented candles do not harm bugs, eliminating the need to sweep up piles of dead bugs. Instead, they release a scent that naturally repels bugs because they find the scent unpleasant. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Finding the right method for your house is key to making sure that you don\u2019t have to deal with bugs during your next bonfire. While most companies use citronella oil to repel mosquitos, this is not the only option you have. There are several other scents that are effective and homemade options that can be more budget-friendly than store-bought items. Homeowners will also need to consider the placement to make sure that the entire area is covered by the scent.<\/p>\n\n\n
