Arguably our best-smelling mosquito repellent, this balm rubs in easily and repels mosquitoes for two hours. Small for light travel yet packed with big protection, this repellent balm is ready to be your dependable companion for all of your outdoor adventures.

The lemony smell of this repellent balm masks our human aromas that make us attractive targets to mosquitoes. By hiding your scent, mosquitoes turn nose-blind making them unable to locate their targets (ahem, you). Wearing our balm is practically the closest thing to having an invisibility superpower.

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS:
- Castor Oil (10.5%)
- Lemongrass Oil (3.25%)
- Rosemary Oil (3.25%)
- Cedarwood Oil (2.0%)
- Peppermint Oil (2.0%)

INERT INGREDIENTS:
- Olive Oil, Beeswax (79%)

No synthetic repellents. No added fragrance. No dyes.

TESTED & TRUSTED

We test our repellent balm at New Mexico State University's Molecular Vector Physiology Lab. But what does “tested" really mean? It means that we don’t hesitate to get in the weeds—or in this case, put our arm in a mosquito cage—until we get the results you deserve.

Our balm is tested on its ability to prevent mosquito bites on a human volunteer. In the most recent study, Murphy’s Mosquito Repellent Balm repelled almost two hours longer than the untreated skin.

    Great mosquito repellant, not oily

    This is the only mosquito balm I've use that smells good and doesn't make me feel all sticky and oily. It does a really good job of keeping the mosquitos away too. I've gone through 2.5 tins this spring/summer.

    Game Changer

    Absolutely love the Mosquito Repellent Balm… not only does it actually work, but it also gives me peace of mind that it’s all natural so I felt good using it throughout my pregnancy and on my toddlers. Added bonus is that it smells sooo good!!! Have definitely recommended this to everyone who sees me take it out of my bag.

    Not working

    Not really working. Put on heavy on legs and then watched mosquito land and bite. Smells ok and maybe stops some but still getting bit. Not really worth spending money on it.
