US Navy Veteran and outdoor-lover, Philip Freeman, believed there could be a natural repellent that he and his wife, Pam, could feel good about. So, Philip put on his coveralls, lab glasses, and his signature ball cap and got to work in his home garage. Before long, he had an effective repellent product formulated with essential oils. He launched his company in his garage and named it to honor their poodle, Murphy. ## Features - NATURAL SCENT BARRIER - Lemony balm masks your scent, making mosquitoes nose-blind and unable to detect you - LASTING PROTECTION - Powerful plant-based formula helps repel mosquitoes for up to 2 hours and ticks for up to 1 hour per application - CLEAN INGREDIENTS – Made with high-quality essential oils and free from added fragrances and dyes.

It's worked great for me so far; I'm a bug magnet and I can collect 5 bug bites in 5 minutes, but while using this I get either 1 or no bites on 30-minute walks. It also smells really nice; there's a bug spray undertone, but it's mostly lemony, herby, and beeswax scented. I've actually put it on just for the smell. It's not super greasy; it's like a thin, thin coat of vaseline. Lastly, the best part, it's no mess to apply and easy to carry around, so it's really convenient. I'm forced to admit I will be back. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Actually effective *by on Reviewed in the United States September 26, 2026* I spend alot of time outdoors and my yard is wooded with a large pond so lots of bugs come along with that. Any DEET products just attract the mosquitos and I end up with just as many, if not more, bug bites. I decided to give this product a try and I am seriously impressed because I have not been bit once!! It’s also easier to use because I just roll it on instead of spraying and getting it in my face and I like the smell too. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smells nice, works great *by on Reviewed in the United States September 20, 2026* Bugs love me, but I don't feel the same way.😄When I'm outside relaxing in the backyard, all kinds of bugs and mosquitoes love to fly around me and sometimes land on me. It's very irritating.I've used many different sprays. Today I was using some Cutters lemon eucalyptus oil on the lounge chair and on my arms. I spray Lafe's insect repellent on my face and neck and some on my head (love the scent). The effects only last a short time before they start buzzing around me again.I just got these Murphy sticks a few minutes ago and rubbed it on my arms, face, neck, upper chest and a little on my feet.Wow, I can already tell the difference! At first, no bugs flying around. Then I just saw one, but a huge improvement.Since I just started using it, I don't know how long the effect will last.The scent is pleasant, considering it's an insect repellent. It's way better than most that I have used.So far, I'm very happy with it.UPDATE: After using it quite a few times, I would say it's good, but not great, so I changed my rating to 4 stars.I still see bugs flying around me, but not as much as before I used it. Sometimes mosquitoes land on my arm where I have the balm on, but they haven't actually bitten me as far as I can tell.I have since bought some mosquito repellent pouches, spray and a mosquito net to put over a hat.It covers from the top of the head down to the chest. I bought all of these on Amazon as well, but haven't tried them out yet. ## Frequently Bought Together - Murphy's Naturals Mosquito Repellent Balm Stick, Father's Day Gift for Dad, Plant-Based, DEET-Free, Pocket Size, 0.5oz Each, 3-Pack - Cutter BiteMD Insect Bite Relief Stick, Analgesic And Antiseptic 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) - Cliganic 10 Pack Mosquito Repellent Bracelets, DEET-Free Bands, Individually Wrapped (Packaging May Vary) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/315442661-murphys-naturals-mosquito-repellent-balm-plant-based-0-5-oz](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/315442661-murphys-naturals-mosquito-repellent-balm-plant-based-0-5-oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-25*
