StingEze MAX Bug Bite Relief, Maximum Itch Relief from Bug Bites and Stings, Stops Pain, Relieves Itching, Reduces Infection - 0.5 oz Travel Pen Dauber

Worked well AFTER mosquito bites. Not immediate relief but better than scratching all day. Kept the welts to a minimum.

Sting-eze is the #1 absolute BEST product on the market to ease the sting and ache of bee stings and other insect bites. I will use no other, because none compare to Sing-Eze. Been using this product for about 40+ years. That is how good this product is.

Easy to use, highly recommend!

StingEze Max2 is a small 1/2 inch sized dose of 10% Benzocaine, Phenol 1.35%, and Camphor 3%. I purchased this product to relieve chigger bites after a recent camping trip. The product arrived today and I used it. Immediate relief was provided then the product began to wear off within 30 minutes. I then bathed in very warm water and about 2 cups of Epsom salts and eucalyptus oil which was quite soothing. I then used a product on Amazon called Puriya Mother of All creams which was also soothing. I wish I had StingEze max in my backpack for the long ride home. The new bites are intensely itchy. After decontaminating the car and all items that went on the trip, I will be keeping SingEze with me on all future trips. I have not had a chigger but in over 10 years and this time I walked into a nest. Chiggers are related to the spider family. The adult does not feed on humans. The youth stage feeds on humans, animals and birds. The adult lays eggs on leaves of grass and the hatched youth hide in shaded areas and under cut grasses and leaves waiting on lunch, dinner, and breakfast - us. By the time we realize we have been bitten, it’s too late. The youth have an enzyme that create a tiny tunnel in the skin. Injected into the skin is more enzyme that liquifies the skin cells. The youth then have a protein shake - us. By the time we realize we have been bitten, it’s too late. The youth have been destroyed through a soapy bath, showered off or scratched off. Folks like me have a strong reaction to the bite. The swelling and the body’s immune system goes into battle mode with histamines and white blood cells which causes swelling - and itching. I stopped using fingernail polish and switched to old home remedies to reduce the swelling. I take an antihistamine that works for me. Right now that antihistamine is Claritin. Benadryl helps me sleep through the itching but Claritin helps reduce the swelling. If one bite is particularly intense - the StingEase helps. The phenol is a product of coal tar. Camphor is from the wood of an evergreen tree. Both have a numbing effect and destroy germs. Benzocaine is manmade and is a numbing agent like a mild anesthetic. Please read the warnings before use. This product works for immediate relief but needs help for long lasting relief from itching plus I know the chigger won’t live to bite again. Photo is 5 days after exposure to chiggers and several hours after using StingEze Max 2. Yep - had to dot each bite and there are more than in the photo. If I had the product in my backpack and rubbed all over the area, the product may have prevented other chiggers from surviving to bite. I like that this was a pen so there is nothing left on the hands - it numbs the mouth if accidentally touches the mouth. Ask how I know. See my review of Chigg Away for a comparison.

I love this bite stick. Of all the bite relief in my medicine cabinet, this is my go-to when the itch is driving me nuts!

I have used this for years. Works well on insect bites and stings. I always carry it in the fall here in the great state of Ohio. We get bad hornets here in the fall and I keep it especially if a kid gets stung. Very helpful. You won't be disaptointed with this purchase.

Finally realized you have to press down hard to get any out of the stick and then there is so little you have to press and press and press every spot the mosquitoes found that in one square area could be as many as 7 or 8 - and then I do not find the liquid to do much about stopping the itching - I end up scratching and scratching where I've put liquid hoping it will seep into the bumps that are brutal - I'm in the Houston area where mosquitoes are thick and even get into my house. This was not the help I was seeking... sorry...

Bought this for my trip to Thailand because I am a MOSQUITO MAGNATE! And the white and red Bug Bite I bought from Wal-Mart was like putting water on my bites, it sucked. So I had a pretty good bug spray in Thailand so I didn't have as much bug bites to use it on until I went to Krabi. I notice my left foot was itching like hell! And saw a bunch of itchy bumps! I swear I got them when I went island hopping at one of the beaches, I think I swam through a pool of sea lice or something, cause we started feeling stinging. When I finally got to use it, first thing I liked about it was that it had a fabric like tip so it wasn't a wet mess. Second, it stopped the itchy after putting on a second layer when the first layer dried off a bit and still itched a little, but I swear the second layer helps because when I got to Bangkok, I forgot to put on my bug spray and got bite on my leg. Tried the 2 layer and the itchy was gone so no itch, meaning no scabbing from scratching.
