People are going wild for a bargain buy from Poundland that’ll help to get rid of pesky flies this summer

WITH glimpses of sunshine up and down the country, it won’t be long before BBQ season is upon us.

But is there anything more annoying than hosting a garden party, only to find yourself relentlessly batting away pesky flies and insets?

Well, that could soon be a problem of the past thanks to a bargain buy from Poundland.

Nathan Roche took to Facebook group  and shared a snap of Citronella incense sticks.

Alongside the image, he penned: “Sun’s out windows are open.

“These are brilliant Incense sticks.

“Poundland 30 sticks for £1.50 not had any flies in this weekend.”

It wasn’t long before the post racked up hundreds of likes and comments.

“We brought loads last year (the big ones and the smaller ones),” wrote one.

“My Poundland hasn’t got them yet but as soon as they do I’ll be buying lots!”

A second penned: “They are great! We haven’t had one fly since using them.”

A third commented: “I use these every year in garden and take to the islands when we go away with our boat keeps the midges away in Scotland haha.”

Meanwhile, a fourth noted: “Deffo need some – get so many flies here! Drives me nuts!”

Another added: “We used on beach days last year worked a treat.”

And one more chimed in: “We have these! I have put a few around my garden and back door. Smells great and works wonders.”

However, elsewhere others issued a few warnings when it comes to using citronella sticks indoors and around pets.

“Citronella is toxic for all pets – please don’t use them around animals!!” urged one.

Another wrote: “Citronella is not recommended for indoors.”
