Thermacell Patio Shield Mosquito Repeller (2017) vs Murphy's Naturals Mosquito Repellent Candle

The Thermacell Patio Shield Mosquito Repeller (2017) is widely considered to be a great Insect Repellent at its $9 budget. The Murphy's Naturals Mosquito Repellent Candle, however, while also a good product at this price point, doesn't stack up against its competitors quite as well.

Good Housekeeping, a review site with a history of doing objective hands-on testing, has great things to say about the Thermacell Patio Shield Mosquito Repeller (2017). In fact, it's "Ranked 1 out of 7" in its "7 Best Mosquito Repellents for Yards, Decks and Patios" roundup, which points toward it being a good Insect Repellent.

Taking a look at the Murphy's Naturals Mosquito Repellent Candle, we found that it hasn't managed to perform well enough to earn a spot in any Insect Repellent roundups done by sources that conduct their own, high-quality, hands-on testing. That alone makes it difficult to recommend.

As a last step, we wanted to do a head-to-head Thermacell Patio Shield Mosquito Repeller (2017) vs. Murphy's Naturals Mosquito Repellent Candle comparison of their review performance but, unfortunately, weren't able to find any review ratings on either product.
