Natural Insect Repellent Stick for Kids and Adults

Badger: A Women-Led, Family-Owned, and Mission-Driven Business

Badger is a family-owned and women-led business that proudly formulates and manufactures natural, organic body care and mineral sunscreens in their 100% solar-powered facility located in rural New Hampshire. Each product they create is inspired by the people they love, including their loyal customers.

As a 2nd generation, women-owned B-Corp, Badger is driven by a mission to provide high-quality, sustainable, and DEET-free products made in the USA. Their story began in the mid-1990s when the founder, Bill Whyte, a carpenter, sought a solution for his cracked and split hands during the frigid New England winters. By mixing beeswax and olive oil, he created a simple herbal balm that not only soothed his own hands but also inspired him to share it with everyone he knew - thus laying the foundation for the Badger brand.

Badger's DEET-Free Bug Repellents, Reef Safe Mineral Sunscreens, Organic Lip Balms, and Intensive Moisturizers have all earned rave reviews. According to Outside Magazine, Badger's lab-tested, insect-repellent balm "has a bit of a cult following" due to its ability to travel well, lack of DEET, pleasant scent, and certified organic ingredients such as castor oil, citronella, rosemary, and lemongrass.

Badger's bug repellent products are designed to be easy to apply, non-messy, and effective against a wide variety of biting insects, including mosquitoes and stable flies. These products are formulated with natural essential oils, without any synthetic chemicals like DEET, boric acid, or picaridin.

Customers can choose from a variety of Badger bug protection options, including bug spray, bug repellent sticks, and itch relief sticks, all of which are vegan, plant-powered, and made in the company's solar-powered facility. These products have been independently tested and approved to be effective for at least 3 hours, providing safe and natural bug protection for the whole family.

Badger's commitment to sustainability is evident in their use of recycled and recyclable packaging, as well as their eco-friendly manufacturing practices. With a focus on providing high-quality, family-friendly, and nature-inspired products, Badger continues to be a trusted brand for those seeking safe and effective bug protection and personal care solutions.
