This stuff smells great! You’ll have a lemon fresh scent that mosquitoes hate. Apply liberally. It’s thick so dig in and grap a goop and start spreading. We visited a mango farm in maui when the humidity was high. The mosquitos were thick, but I stayed bite free. This was a blessing because mosquitos love my blood, it’s a delicacy to them. It’s great to have a natural approach that’s not harsh on my lungs, skin, and the environment. Remember, apply liberally and small like lemons! I will definitely be buying again.

Honestly a life saver. We just went to Costa Rica and carried this on us, it was easy to apply and reapply. Smells great and I barely got any bites even though we were in some pretty thick jungly places :)

Worked great for mosquitoes, they stayed away, however I was eaten alive by sand flies. 🫣

This stuff works fantastically for any pesty bugs. I can walk out in any outdoor situation and not have even a hint of a bug coming near me. (Not even a quick buzz by my ear!) It always feels like that magical brief time when it’s too early to have bugs in Spring, and too late to have bugs later in the fall all the time! When I’m gardening or weeding I do not have to wear my hat with mosquito/gnat netting with this on! I have never used a balm for bug control (usually a spray) so I wondered about how that would go. I just take a little bit and lightly rub together in my hands like an ointment and smooth it over my head, neck areas/body including lightly on my clothing. It does not stain or leave grease marks on clothing. This works so great! I was impressed how little you need for it to be effective! I would say the amount is less than the size of a pencil eraser that I use. It feels like as long as it’s on me, the bugs are repelled so I just have to have a basic hint of it all over, not smeared in every place like icing on a cake. Then the cherry on top is that this scent smells SO pretty, I seriously would wear it as a perfume because I enjoy the scent so much. It’s just beautiful and I don’t have to put up with the gross feeling of standard bug spray anymore where you feel like you just took a gross chemical bath. I really love this natural bug balm! Amazing! Will definitely be using it for years if able!

I am a MAGNET for mosquitoes. I walk outside for 2 minutes in summer and I've got several bites already. I've tried everything you can find on a big box store shelf and still get ate up. I decided to start trying some alternatives and gave this product a try, liking that it contained more natural ingredients. I was worried I'd hate the smell but it was actually very pleasant. Citrusy and fresh smelling, and a little went a long way. It wasn't super oily. My skin felt moisturized. HOWEVER, literally right after application, I got bit.....and continued to get bit until I could not take it anymore and went back to a store bought spray. While this may be a great product for most people, but for me it didn't help at all with the mosquitoes.

Works well but the container is much smaller than it looks and has to be reapplied every couple of hours.

I have tried SO many sprays, balms, wipes, etc. None have compared to this one! My Husband and I went to Cozumel with friends on a cruise. I always worry about mosquito bites because I have CRACK BLOOD to them and they can swarm you. I took another bug repellent with me that has worked before, but also brought this as a back up. We went to see some ancient ruins and it was very muggy that day. The other (Spray) "all natural repellent," FAILED. My friend shouted out, "OMG the mosquitos are swarming you" and then everyone was going OMG. I pulled out the Murphy's mosquito repellent and started applying. Within about a minute to 2 mins they couldn't even find me and starting biting others in our group. LOL. The scent is not over powering at all and even with severe allergies (including eczema) this DOES NOT cause any itching. I even slept all night with it on my skin and still no itching and no tearing up of my skin. This stuff is AMAZING! I never leave my house without it. I take mini's of the repellent with me. You can pop a little bit into the microwave and melt it down to pour into other mini containers. Like: An oval lip balm tube (friends preferred the mini stick method of application) or empty eyeshadow (I prefer this method) for the pocket! The Tin works well for me and the solid makes it so much easier to travel with as you do not have to get it out for TSA pre-checks. The Murphy's bite relief and soothing balm works great too if you happen to get bit. A+ all around on these items.

I used this when I went to Costa Rica and it worked really well. I always get bug bites but this really protected me. I’ll be taking this with me on my next tropical destination.
