I can’t say that I really know for sure how well this bad boy will keep the blood sucking demons away, but it makes me feel better to know that I’ve taken all necessary precautions. Not to mention it just looks really cool and the blue of the fuel matches the blue theme of the label. I can’t wait to have some folks over and actually be able to sit outside for cocktails or dinner without fear of contracting West Nile. To misquote Syrio Forel: “What do we say to the mosquitoes? Not today!”

Your ingredients.
Start by punching a hole into the metal cap of your bottle. Make sure that you don’t make the hole too wide or your wick and copper will fall right through.
Put your wick into your copper coupling, then make sure that everything fits together. You also have the option of purchasing pre-made wicks that have the coupling already on them and will fit perfectly into the bottle opening.
Go outside and, using a funnel or something of that ilk, fill your bottle with the tiki fuel.
Then place your wick/coupling combo inside as well. Allow to sit for a few minutes so that the wick can become inundated with the fuel. Then just light and enjoy any time you want some outside time devoid of buzzing winged vampires.
