The smoke from these candles or burners do keep the mosquitoes away, but in heavily windy conditions, the citronella might prove to be useless in keeping the mosquitoes away. Other options are to spray your camping equiptment and clothing with permethrin, which is also an insecticide.

The dunks have a biological agent that kills the mosquito when ingested, but is safe for all other animals and humans.
