Indeed, it’s one of the best remedies that has been proven effective for hundreds of years. The original Tiger Balm was created in Burma in the 1870s by a Chinese herbalist, Aw Chu Kin.
The balm contains menthol, mint oil, clove oil, cajuput oil, and camphor. Here are 19 uses of Tiger Balm that no one knows about:
1. Soothes mosquito bites
Got bitten by a mosquito? No worries! Tiger Balm can help soothe the itching by applying it directly to the bite.
2. Serves as an insect repellent
Tiger Balm is a very effective repellent. Mosquitoes and wasps hate its strong smell.
Place a can of Tiger Balm in the four corners of your room during the summer, leaving the lid open. Insects will never enter a room that smells of Tiger Balm.
3. Exterminates termites
Wooden or bamboo furniture affected by wood-boring insects can be treated with Tiger Balm to get rid of them.
