Murphy's Naturals Mosquito Repellent Balm, Plant-Based, 0.5 oz (Pack of 3) | Formulated with cedarwood, lemongrass & rosemary oils; DEET-free*, repels mosquitoes up to 2 hrs & ticks 1 hr; travel-size

Works great, smells even better! I’ve tried a lot of mosquito repellents, but this one has quickly become my favorite. The balm is the perfect size to keep in my purse, so it’s always on hand when I’m out and about. Application is easy and mess-free, and unlike sprays, I don’t have to worry about it leaking or getting everywhere. What really sets this apart is the scent. It’s fresh, light, and surprisingly pleasant—so much so that I’ve had people ask me what perfume I’m wearing after I’ve applied it! It’s nice to use a repellent that doesn’t smell harsh or chemical-like, but still does the job of keeping mosquitoes away. I’ve already repurchased and will continue to keep this stocked. If you want a natural mosquito repellent that’s effective, portable, and smells good enough to get compliments, this is it.

This is by far the best mosquito repellent I have tried. No more messy sticky sprays, it's small enough for pocket, no overpowering odor. I live in Florida, so I know mosquitos!! Good Stuff!!

So happy they made this into a stick! No more "fumes" and much easier to carry. I feel like it's not quite as effective as the original liquid, but maybe because I probably apply less with the stick than I would when I use the spray? Either way, this is some of the best repellent I have found and I only pull out the DEET as last resort.

Mosquitos, ticks, and chiggers line up and buy tickets to bite my husband, but generally don't bother me. I bought this for him, and had to start using myself, because they won't get near him now. I got swarmed with mosquitos and had chigger bites, plus found a few attached ticks the first time he used it. Now we both use it and aren't hearing that whiny buzz or getting itchy bites. Essential oils for the win! This stuff really works. I put a swipe of it around my leg just above the ankle, on each side of my neck, and on each arm. The solid form is easy to put where it's needed. We also bought the spray, which also works, but like sprays do, it goes where the breeze takes it, and isn't easy to use on the neck area. These are pocket-sized, not big. The spray is 4 oz. But the relief from insects is HUGE.

We moved into our new house and the first night we were eaten alive!! It was horrible, especially over the feet and ankles. They call these things no see ums because they’re so tiny! The bites are so itchy I had to do something. I started putting this on my arms and legs, no more bites!! This has been a lifesaver. I put it on daily and it’s been great. Smells strong of lemon and the dogs aren’t crazy about it, I don’t care as long as I’m not being bit. They’re like tiny deodorant sticks which is very easy to use and I don’t have to get it all over my hands. Will buy more for sure!

These came in a 3-pack, and are a lot smaller than I anticipated. Totally my mistake... I guess I didn't realize how small 0.5 oz really is. Smells really good, though! Will come back to update my rating after this weekend's camping trip!

Easy to use and small enough for pocket or purse

Excellent protection from those nasty little mosquitos! Great for garden work or just sitting on the deck.

Its very small in size still did not try if effective
