Herbal Bug Balm  (read our reviews)      Order Here

For My Kids Herbal Bug Balm was a request from friends and family with small children and babies who wanted something that could be used without worrying about harmful chemicals being absorbed into little bodies.  Unfortunately, no herbal repellent is effective against all insects, but they do work well against many of the common buggers.  What we came up with was a nice, lemony salve that, when rubbed in, isn’t oily.  For My Kids Herbal Bug Balm uses 100 percent pure organic catnip essential oil.  Nepetalactone, which gives catnip its odor, was found to be 10 times more effective than the popular insect repellent diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET) without the harmful side effects.  In experiments, scientists found a greater percentage of mosquitoes were repelled by the catnip extract than by DEET.  Just remember that the repellent properties of herbs work due to their essential oils, which evaporate quickly. That means you may need to reapply regularly.

Our Herbal Bug Balm contains organic coconut oil, organic soybean oil, candelilla wax, organic tamanu oil, organic lemon balm, organic rosemary, organic lemongrass essential oil, geranium oil, organic catnip oil, and Vitamin E oil.

A soy-free version is also available.  Contact us for more information.

For My Kids Herbal Bug Balm is for external use only.  For My Kids Herbal Bug Balm is available in 1- and 2-ounce reusable tin containers.  Our containers are tin-covered steel with a food-grade coating and are made in the United States.
