If you add a debounce, you're problem may stop.


script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local debounce = false
if debounce == true then
return
else
debounce = true
local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer

    if (humanoid ~= nil) then   
 for d,tools in pairs(plr.Backpack:GetChildren()) do 

    local i = Instance.new("TextLabel")
    local find = plr.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("pack")
    i.Parent = find.Back
    if tools:IsA("Tool") then   
        i.Text = tools.Name
        print(tools.Name)
debounce = false

    end
end
    end
end

end)
