Good Pouring Spout and Burns Nicely, Hazard Label
This product is very flammable, so taking proper precautions when using it and storing it is important to do. There is a booklet warning the buyer about this. We are storing the bottle covered with a plastic bag in the garage away from electric or gas items. The spout on the bottle is perfect for pouring into a torch container. It was easy to light and produced a nice flame, see picture. It did a good job of keeping the bugs away. The container of oil was big enough to fill the torch at least twice.

Fewer Mosquitoes and pleasant smell
I've not used a citronella fueled torch before and actually and thought that they were just gadgets. Surprisingly this stuff works and NO obnoxious smell. Simply dig out a 6-8 inch hole and safely place torch into hole, cover and pack dirt to securely anchor. Fill the torch container with Mainstays Citronella fuel, and trim the wick to 1/4 inch and light. There is a considerable amount of smoke but I guess that's part of, along with Citronella scent, that drives off the mosquitoes. This will now be part of my summer insect control as I definitely noticed minimal insect activity. Fuel lasts along time. When through simply snuff out flame with the bamboo Cap, attached to torch.

    Smells Amazing When Burning!
    Torch Fuel is one of those items you can't try out and smell before you burn it, so you rely on what reviewers say. I can tell you this smells amazing! In addition to the pleasant smell of the citronella, it also did not produce any back smoke, like some other brands do. The other great thing I really like with this brand was the large 50 oz size, which is great if you have several outside touches around the backyard. This brand Mainstays, also did a great job on the design of the pouring spout! Every other brand I have tried in the past has a regular large opening on top of the bottle, and makes it messy when adding the fuel to the touch- but not this brand! Super easy to pour!. I love this product and I wont be changing- too many great things.

    Very Interesting
    I was thinking this would be to much smoke, I was really wrong thinking that. I got some (Carnival Glass Table torches for the patio). It was so very pretty not much smoke at all. We all had a great time everyone liked the smell it was very soft smelling when we lit them up. It's a very good product and the shipping was great it was wrapped very well and when you take it out they had the top covered again. When you get that off you muct pull a little plastic piece out. I think this is a very good for this product. This fuel is fantastic on keeping the mosquitoes and other away we did not see or feel anything. This product works extremely good. I will be getting some more for this summer. I am happy to find a product that I can use on the patio and not have smoke all around us as we eat. Has a great price on it also not bad for what you're getting.

    Works very well
    This is great mosquito repellant. I live in the country and we have creeks and swamps, and alot of mosquitoes. I use this fluid because it is affordable and it works. I do however have to use a alot because I use 4 tiki torches. The only thing that could be better with this fluid is for it to burn longer.

    Mainstay Torch Fuel
    This Mainstay torch fuel came very nicely and safely packed. Came in a large plastic container with a pop-up pour spout for easy pouring and to avoid spilling. Nice size, last a long time, burns slowly, so I enjoyed my tiki's all evening long and then some. I also like that it's scented with Citronella, it smells wonderful! Safety Features are: use in a well ventilated area, store upright, store away from open flames, wipe excess fluid from canister. Stay safe and keep out of the reach of children. Thanks for the opportunity to review this fine product.

    A Summer Must!
    This is something we use a lot of. We live in Georgia so it's warm here right much during the year which means lots of bugs most of the year. This stuff is great! It definitely keeps the bugs away and we get to enjoy all of the torches and stuff we have around our property. Highly recommend if you plan to be outdoors this summer!

    Perfect for evenings on the porch or patio
    We have always used this brand of torch fuel. It lasts forever, lights up our outdoor area beautifully and keeps the mosquitoes away! We use in not only our tiki torches but in our table top candle torches as well. It makes our evenings outside beautiful and bug free.

    I needed this so much
    This torch fuel is so good, I really didn't know what i was missing. I purchased a torch for my backyard patio, i call it my oasis , and it's just what i needed to complete my space. The smell is excellent and it actually repels mosquitoes. I get such a calming affect each time i light it, and it does wonders for my mental well being, 100% recommended by me.

    No bugs!
    I received this citronella torch fuel for outdoor fuel torches. It works great! Lit right up, stays lit even in wind, and has a nice citronella scent. It kept the bugs away and gives a pretty atmosphere to your patio area. I like it and would recommend it.
