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

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!

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.

Tengo años usándolo y me encanta que lo puedo llevar en mi bolsa de mano, en cuanto lo aplico después de un piquete de mosco me quita la comezón, recomendado

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.

I LOVE these! We live in GA where it’s hot and humid and that’s the perfect mixture for mosquitoes! So this stays on me with skin so soft (green bottle) to keep them away and stop any itching if I or the kids get bit. I highly recommend! I turned around and bout 3 more for family members.

Not enough medicine comes out, so help to keep pressing to bite area 3 to 5 times to wet. Takes a while to start working but you still have itching just not as severe.

I've been using stingeze for years. It is a must for traveling to buggy places. I keep one next to my bed in case I wake up to an itch. It instantly relieves it! They used to make a liquid which I also really like. But I don't see it on amazon any more. Definitely recommend.
