BadgerAnti-Bug Balm Travel Stick - 0.6 oz.

I’m allergic to actual bug spray and always have been. I usually use nothing, but when working a wedding in June in the south, by the water, next to a wooded area…I knew I had to have some sort of bug repellent. I ordered this, knowing how much I’ve always loved Badger’s products. I put some behind my ears, inside my wrists, and around my ankles….it worked! Came home with zero bug bites after a long day outside! Smell is fine! Smells like a citronella candle, which I don’t mind. It absorbs into the skin so you can always reapply if necessary. I only reapplied once for a whole day. I also used this on my toddlers when they went out on the golf course one evening to chip and putt…again, it worked! I’ll be keeping one in my purse and one in the diaper bag from now on! I highly recommend this product!

This is kind of greasy feeling while applying, but it really works! I can hike or garden without being chewed up by the mosquitoes, black flies, and other blood-suckers that make outdoor life miserable. The stick makes it easy to apply to the back of the neck, behind the ears, and not have to wash it off the palms of your hands. The small size of the container lets me toss one into my backpack, and another into my handbag, so I'm protected from the mini-buzzards even when I didn't expect to be outdoors. I just need to make sure that I don't run out!

this worked for pre-bug and post-bug bites. I thought it was for post-bug bites not pre-application before you go out. so this is a win win. very easy to just put in a small pocket and go.As I said I thought it was for post-bug bites, so I used it on my mosquito bites that were itching and driving me crazy, they did help with the itch which helped me sleep and ignore the bite.

I keep this in my beach bag - easy to transport - keeps away biting bugs and flies.

So easy to use, clean ingredients, and it actually works! Used on myself and my little one to go to the zoo and during a trip to Florida, my husband got bitten by several mosquitoes but neither myself or my little one got a single bite!
