How to make a simple mosquito repellent candle?

The formula is to add a little essential oil that mosquitoes hate. In summer, we can't avoid mosquito bites, which will affect our lives and sometimes damage our health. Make a simple mosquito-repellent incense candle and put it on the balcony, which is very compatible with plants, practical and decorative. This is a very interesting handicraft. If it is placed in the bedroom, the mosquito repellent effect will be better than that on the balcony, but it should be well ventilated. The following describes the process of making mosquito repellent candles.

1 material preparation stage, first prepare a vegetarian potted flower device, which is generally available in flower shops. Just buy it and choose your favorite size. Then, prepare essential oil, cellophane, candles, empty cans and disposable bamboo chopsticks. If not, disposable chopsticks are ok, as well as crayons and aluminum foil paper. These are basically enough, and the next step is the specific operation process.

2. First, wrap the candle in cellophane or put it in an empty jar and put it in a pot with water. After the candle melts, take out the wick with disposable bamboo chopsticks, cut the crayons into small pieces with a knife, and put them in an empty jar for color matching. The dosage depends on the size of the appliance you choose, and you can also adjust the color to your liking according to your own preferences.

3. Plug the hole at the bottom of the flowerpot with the aluminum foil paper we prepared in advance. The position of the aluminum foil paper is determined by the height of the candle. This step is relatively simple. Reinsert the candle wick. You can use the wick of the original candle or buy a new wick from the market. After cutting, put it in a flowerpot with moderate height, so as to achieve better burning effect in the later stage. Then hold it with bamboo chopsticks and slowly pour the melted wax into the flowerpot. The amount of melted wax poured into the flowerpot is enough to fix the candle core. The most important thing is to pour 2~3 drops of essential oil into the remaining melted wax, stir it and pour it into the flowerpot. After 3~4 hours, the candle basically solidified. This is a mosquito-repellent candle with simple manufacturing process, easy operation, convenient use and good mosquito-repellent effect.
