Mosquito Guard Incense Sticks provide a plant-based alternative to paraffin candles for stationary outdoor use. The sticks are constructed from high-density bamboo sawdust with a 10% essential oil saturation ratio, which is notably higher than many standard options. This concentration is designed to help the smoke plume maintain its repellent properties even as it dissipates in an open-air backyard or patio setting.
Specifications indicate that the sticks perform best when placed in a perimeter—often referred to as the "Fortress Method"—with 3 to 4 sticks spaced approximately 10 feet apart to create a cohesive protective zone. While the bamboo core is sturdy, it can become fragile in high-humidity storage, so keeping them in a dry environment is recommended. Each stick typically requires about 15 to 20 seconds of direct flame to ignite properly and begin releasing the scent barrier.
- High oil saturation (10%) provides a more robust scent throw than industry averages.
- Clean-burning bamboo base produces minimal soot compared to wax-based candles.
- Ideal for creating a 10-12 foot protective bubble in low-wind conditions.
Summary: These high-saturation incense sticks are a reliable tool for creating a multi-point perimeter for outdoor dining or camping.
