Can I use candles?

Hey guys, I make scented candles in my spare time, was wondering if there is any fragrance i can use in my candles so i can place them near my plants as a natural pest control, like citronella does for mosquitos.

I'm gonna go ahead and guess that you dont want to do that. carbon from the max might build up on your plants... indoors anyway. outdoors... i don't see why not

I bet you could make some type of pest repellant candle by fragrance but yeah, bad if sharing the same air as your plants as the soot & oil can clog stomatas.

Maybe away from the grow will help ward off surrounding pest? I treat the outdoor surroundings of my house every 6 months, i feel its good practice in a nature heavy environment.

Okay thank you guys, I'll stick to the normal methods of pest control.
