Abstract
A lamp dispenses a volatile material, such as an insecticide, from a burnable coil. There is a flame source mounted on a base, a chimney, a coil support, and a burnable coil supported on the coil support above the flame. The flame provides light, heats the coil to some extent, and provides convection for dispersal of the volatile. A kit for replacing the candle and coil consumed during use is also disclosed, as are methods of use of such lamps.
