Someone in the Q&A question asked about Insectbane Candles (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/equipment---final/goods-and-services/hunting-camping-survival-gear#TOC-Candle-Insectbane), which he found on the d20PFSRD (Here (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/equipment---final/goods-and-services/hunting-camping-survival-gear#TOC-Candle) if that other link fails you). But after a lot of Googling and even checking some Chronicles, I start to doubt whether these even exist in Pathfinder. Because they share the same wording as the Insectbane Candles described in the Arms and Equipment Guide (Which is 3.0 or 3.5, I forgot).
So does anyone know where candles came from and if they are official in Pathfinder or not?
Also does anyone have a good idea of the intend of the item?
My first guess was that would effect "Mundane Vermin", aka the type of Vermin you won't fight in battle like a common housefly, or a cockroach. Not an angry fly swarm or a giant cockroach. But that item seems pointless because DnD doesn't now mundane vermin. Pathfinder happens to do (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/traps-hazards-and-special-terrains/hazards/environmental-hazards/mundane-insect-swarms-cr-2), but that is unrelated to the 3.0 (or 3.5) item from A&EG
