Abstract
A combination lamp and volatile dispenser provides light and dispenses a volatile material such as an insecticide from a burnable coil. There is a burn vessel, a flame source and a chimney. The burn vessel houses the coil, has openings allowing air to pass through the burn vessel, and supports the chimney and flame source. The arrangement allows volatiles released from the burning coil in the vessel to be drawn to the outside air through the chimney. A kit for replacing the candle and coil consumed during use is also disclosed, as are methods of use of such lamps.
