I have to tell you that your Anti Bug Balm really works. I’ve tried everything under the sun for mosquitoes. I have leukemia and am highly allergic now to mosquito bites. Using your balm, I watch the mosquitoes JUMP off of me. I even tested it out on my husband and son just to be sure. It really works! I am stunned! You have no idea how great it is for me to be able to go outside and not worry about bites that turn into blisters that itch hideously for a week and take two weeks to heal!
The balm saved me while backpacking in Oregon. The allergic reaction I have to mosquito bites is quite bad due to my suppressed immune system because of the leukemia. I’m not fond of using chemicals. To actually find something natural that works is amazing for me. You have no idea. I’ve posted about the balm on the leukemia forum I belong to because others have troubles with bug bites. I’ve also told my leukemia specialist about it.
Thank you for making something that REALLY works! Without the balm, I could not enjoy being on my boat and watching the sunset. The mosquitoes are the worst at that time.

I just wanted to let you know that the Bug Balm is fantastic! It has passed the South Florida Test for Mosquitos and Deer Flies. I also used it while camping in Central Florida over Memorial Day Weekend and once again, it was perfect.
I do a lot of camping and I have always looked for natural remedies, but none have really worked until now...

I'm an avid golfer with just the right amount of whatever it is that bugs are attracted to! I've tried everything to keep the squito's and no-see-ums away. A friend gave me your Anti-Bug Balm and it has been in my golf bag ever since! I love it. I introduced my whole family to it on the Fourth of July during a spectacularly calm, bug-infested fireworks display! THANK YOU.

We have just returned from a rustic camping adventure in the wilds of New Hampshire. The bugs were out in full force so we applied Badger Bug Balm liberally and were delighted at its effectiveness, aroma, and a nifty side effect. I had a bit of poison ivy and it was soothed and healed it. Thank you for a great product.

Tried your Anti-Bug Balm for the first time yesterday morning. Amazing! It kept the gnats and horseflies away for the rest of the day.

Hi,
I run a riding stable in Afton, VA … I do LOVE your stuff and the Anti Bug Balm is awesome. A client turned me on to your anti-bug balm for my dog. Only one or two ticks (I live at the base of a mountain) and very few fleas - none if I am consistent about applying it. AS for the horses, it is amazing how it keeps the flies and horseflies off. Will you ever make it in a bigger container for us horse people? You could sell tons of it through the horse catalogs. I hate chemicals and am delighted to have found a natural alternative, which stays on!
Thanks,

When I was in the USA I found your Anti-bug Balm easily available - and let it be said superb at stopping the bugs. I do a lot of fishing and whilst a substantial 'hatch' is great for fishing it is less than wonderful to be standing on a river bank being eaten alive by all sorts. (And if you really want to discover what it would be like to be eaten alive an hour spent in the West Highlands of Scotland in the early evening in late Summer or early Autumn will give you direct experience!)

While visiting the Cracker Barrel in Cadiz, Kentucky a couple of months ago, I noticed your Anti-Bug Balm product as I was paying my bill. Being very attractive to ticks as I am, I thought I would give your product a try. I have purchased many products over the years with little success, but I have to tell you that this is by far the best anti-tick repellent that I have EVER used! I have an extremely large yard to mow, & I have now used the product twice before I begin my 3 hour mowing session. Today I got one tick off me whereas I usually would be picking them off by the handfuls! I have not seen your product here in Hopkinsville, but you can bet I will go back to Cadiz to buy some more. Thank you for such a great balm! I am telling everyone about it!

Dear W.S. Badger,
Thank you for all your wonderful products. I went camping last week and took my Anti-bug Balm with me. All of the goof balls I was with were spraying a deet-based repellent (yuck) on & not only were my daughter and I the only ones that weren't sticky & stinky, we were bug free and they had flies all over them. I took the Sore Muscle Rub also. I was the only one sleeping in a tent. Thank you for saving my old body from torture.

I love, love, LOVE your Bug Balm!
My children and I are mosquito magnets. I refuse to use chemicals so we've used other products but you know, they're greasy and smelly. I recently discovered Bug Balm at our local Cracker Barrel and decided to try it. It works great! Especially important now that we've got the West Nile virus here. I love the citrus/citronella scent, and the patchouli that comes through later. YUM!
Thanks for such a great product.

Hi Badger Balm,
My Name is Louise I am a Very active horseback rider and let me tell you the bugs are horrific in the summer in New England. So I picked up a tin of your Bug Balm and I am addicted! It works so well on me I decided to try it on my Horse and guess what same results! My horse can't stand the bugs in her ears or on her face. So before I go for a ride and even in turn out my horse can stay bug free I rub some in her ears and on her face it works better than any horse fly product I've ever used thank you Badger balm for helping me and my four legged friend.

Just wanted to let you know that I was up in the foothills of the Adirondacks this past weekend with a group of 8 breast cancer survivors who were participating in a Casting for Recovery retreat, for which I am an instructor. The black flies were brutal. A few of the gals had head nets, but I shared my Badger Bug Balm with the ones who didn't and we couldn't believe how well it worked. I have tried probably dozens of bug repellents in my day, but yours is by far the best. The black fly "punks" swarmed around me a little bit, but didn't bite. Thanks for a great product that isn't filled with nasty chemicals and smells great too!
Sincerely,
Victoria L.
