Murphy’s Naturals Insect Bite Relief Balm Stick, Travel-Friendly, Soothes Bug Bites with Plant-Based Oil, Fast-Acting, Easy Application, 0.5oz, 3-Pack

I've used this for years and I really like it. It's easy to use, great to take on a trip (international) and it works!!

Super easy to apply, smells great, and works after a minute or so.

Great for bites. It's works well this is my second purchase.

This is a balm that works like a deodorant. There is no odor emitted. It does have a cooling soothing effect for the aftermath insect bite. The ingredients are all natural. It gets the job down for relief from annoying insect bite aftermath. Four stars, I have to apply a lot on the infected area. I like the travel size. I hate using cream. Ointments are okay. I hate using bug spray and moist towelette as applicators.

Works amazing!

I work in wetlands, so it’s important for me to not use DEET both because of my long term exposure and because I handle amphibians. This balm works great - it only lasts for 30-45 minutes, but it’s enough time to give me some mosquito relief and allows me to get my work done. I can tell when it is time to reapply.Bonus: everyone always comments on how nice I smell - which means a lot after a week in the backcountry!Extra bonus: the afterbite balm is also lovely!!!

My family loves this itch stopping balm. We strategically place it throughout the house during the mosquito season so we have it when we need it! It also smells nice.

For some reason, my family and I are total mosquito magnets every summer, which makes it almost impossible to relax at home or enjoy a nice hike without getting eaten alive.I tried this product, and while it gave some relief, I found myself reapplying it constantly to keep the itch at bay. Plus, the scent didn’t seem to do much either. I know it’s not designed to repel mosquitoes, but since the smell is similar to the brand’s spray and candles, I was hoping it might help—no such luck!While it’s a solid alternative to cortisone, it might not completely replace it for long-term itch relief. Based on the reviews, it might work better on certain mosquito species than others—and unfortunately, it didn’t hold up well against the aedes mosquito found here in California.
