where to find sparklers in Geneva

I love sparklers, those sticks covered with stuff that you light and then they twizzle and spark and make summer summer. Can you get them here?
Would a quincaillerie have them? And what are they called because while I can describe around many words I don't know in French, I think this one would be beyond my vocabulary.


Thanks!

Hi,


These sparklers are traditionnally used on the 1st of August, the Swiss national day, so you should find plenty of them in July in stores like M-Parc in Carouge, and many others, even supermarkets.

Some people also call them "feux de bengale", something between sparklers and fireworks.
