The candles emit smoke into the air , which repells the insects
We believe our 10-yr old Female Dauschund ate an "unknown" amount of a Citronella Candle that had melted from the heat. We were not aware that she had eaten the candle until we got home and found what we considered to be an "accident" on the floor, then later in the evening found a small spot on the couch...these "accidents" appeared to be a waxey substance. The next evening we found a few more sporatic spots of this waxey substance.....that lead us to looking at the rear-ends of all 3 of our dogs.....that is when we saw the same substance on our Dauschund. After putting our heads together, my husband and I finally figured out she must have eaten some of the melted citronella candle that had been sitting outside- we immediately picked it up. Mind you, my Dauschund, as well as most, will eat anything at anytime, all the time. Fortunately, our Dauschund appears to be doing fine. We made a point to give her extra food for a couple days to help push out any remaining candle substance. Eventhough she does not seem to have reacted badly to the Citronella Candle, we will continue to watch her closely. This is the fourth day from first noticing the substance and our dog is doing ok. So, based on my particular situation, I would have to say that Citronella is not poisonous - - and I thank God for that.
Power, work, and time are related through the equation Power = Work/Time. Power measures the rate at which work is done, while work is the transfer of energy that results in a change in the state of a system. Time is the duration over which work is done, influencing the power required to perform the work efficiently.
Some commonly used fragrances in aromatherapy include lavender for relaxation, peppermint for invigoration, eucalyptus for respiratory support, and chamomile for calming effects. Citrus scents like lemon and orange are also popular for boosting mood and energy.
Energy does not have the ability to do work, but we use energy to do work. Work is the application of force over a distance. The amount of energy changes how much work can be done, but energy technically does not do any work.
