Guests are saying
This mosquito bite relief pen is highly praised for its immediate itch relief and portability, making it a convenient solution for families and individuals who frequently encounter bug bites. The active ingredient, benzocaine, is effective for many users, though some have experienced issues with the pen drying out quickly or the applicator not working well.

Good for stopping itch!
The product seems to get the itch to stop, but it’s hard to get out. You have to roll it over the bite several times. Sometimes it comes out in excess and sometimes you barely get any! It is more convenient than using a cream product!

Didnt help
Didn’t work, not at all
1 reply from OFF!_Product Expert team - 7 months ago
We're sorry to hear that OFF!® didn't provide the relief you were hoping for. If the itching persists, we recommend reapplying the product after 10–15 minutes (up to 3 times daily). It's most effective when used shortly after the bite for temporary relief. Since your experience didn’t meet expectations, we’d like to make it right. Please give us a call at 1-800-558-5252 (weekdays, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT) and mention reference number: 22889599. We look forward to your call. – Megan, SC Johnson Consumer Care

Contains a dangerous toxin
This product contains phenol, which is a KNOWN dangerous toxin. If ingested it is highly toxic, inhalation of it can cause severe breathing problems and organ failure and when applied to the skin can cause dermatitis, burns and even necrosis. Shame on off for putting this in their products, I will no longer be purchasing anything made by them and will be heavily scrutinizing products made by Johnson and Johnson going forward. Please do not buy this product, it is not worth the risk. If you don’t believe me, Google “topical phenol side effects” and thank me later.

A million stars!
I would give it 100 STARS! I simply can't live without it. I was attacked by fleas, and if you have too you probably know how bad it itches for weeks if you're as sensitive as me. I tried EVERYTHING. I could give a list of every natural and chemical remedy I found on the internet, but it would be toooo long. This was the ONLY product that worked out of all of them. It takes a minute to start taking effect, but it just stopped the itching completely and I was finally able to sleep. I carry one in my purse, and have one in every corner of my house. It's the best thing to scratch an itchy bite spot because the tip is not too coarse to break skin, but is firm enough to scratch effectively, and the solution that rubs off on the bite spot will continue to keep it from starting to itch again. It's amazingly easy to use for kids too. Mosquitoes bites aren't as itchy as flea bites, so if it works for flea bites it is definitely working for mosquito bites too.

Not the same...
I think they might have reformulated this and or the mosquitoes just adapted with extra strong saliva. Idk because this product is definitely not as strong or as effective as it was in the past and I’m disappointed I wasted money on buying 2 pens. I have been reapplying multiple times every hour and my itching has seen zero relief. Definitely not worth the cost.

Great for kids!
Kids find instant relief with this after a mosquito bite. My older one needs it every where she goes. Her mosquito bites can get bad and this helped plenty! Younger one has sensitive skin and she was fine using this.’

Awesome product
I love this so much. I was in northern Minnesota last week and got a ton of bites. The family I was visiting had this and I used it non-stop and bought my own when I came home. The active ingredient is benzocaine, which is a numbing agent. If you look at other anti-itch pens and creams, they use a different treatment like diphenhydramine. In my opinion, the benzocaine is perfect. It works almost immediately and suppresses the itch for probably 8-10 hours. The only issue I'm having is I think the pen is running out and I've only had it for 2 days. But maybe that just says how many bites I have. I'll gladly buy another.

Not worth the money
It was not similar to After Bite which is what I originally wanted. It didn’t relieve any itching.

Works great
This has been a life saver this year with how bad the mosquitos have been. My whole family has been just covered in bites and scratching uncontrollably. Thank goodness for this little pen! Works immediately. Nice and small, about the same size as a Tide stick,so it's easy to throw in your bag and take it with you through the day.
