StingEze Max2 Insect Sting & Bite Relief
A topical sting and bite relief liquid for the moment after a bee gets you. StingEze Max2 uses a benzocaine-based formula to calm the pain, itching, and swelling of insect bites and stings, applied right to the spot with a built-in sponge dauber. Ammonia-free, so it's gentler on skin than older ammonia-based relievers. A useful thing to keep in the bee yard or the kit bag.

How it works (in real life)
Even in good gear, a sting gets through now and then — a glove gap, a bee under the veil, a bare forearm on a quick check. StingEze is what you reach for afterward. Benzocaine is a topical anesthetic (the same active ingredient in many anti-itch creams and sunscreens) that numbs the spot to take the edge off the pain and itch. You dab it directly on the bite with the sponge applicator and massage it in. Keeping a bottle in your kit means you're not scratching through the rest of an inspection.

FAQ
What does it do?
It's a topical reliever for the pain and itch of insect bites and stings. The benzocaine numbs the area so the sting bothers you less.
How do I use it?
Dab it directly onto the bite or sting with the sponge applicator and massage it in. Follow the label directions.
Why ammonia-free?
Some older sting relievers use ammonia, which can dry or irritate skin. The benzocaine formula is gentler while still numbing the spot.
Is this a cure for a bee allergy?
No. It relieves the normal pain and itch of a sting. A serious allergic reaction (trouble breathing, swelling beyond the sting site) is a medical emergency — seek care immediately.
