BUG BITE THING Suction Tool - Bug Bites and Bee/Wasp Stings, Natural Insect Bite Relief, Black

I saw this on Shark Tank and thought that if it worked it would be worth the money. I seem to be prone to bug bites. Well I testify it does work. I haven't tried it for wasp or bee, but it works for mosquitoes and that it good enough for me. All my grandchildren ages 8 and up used it as well, and stopped itching those pesky mosquito bites. No battery, it was easy for all of us to use. It's a good size to put in your first aide kit when you are camping or hiking.

Easy use, pain relief after spider bite, almost no skin irritation now, the size is good, effective aswell

I was skeptical about the Bug Bite Thing at first, but after using it several times on fresh mosquito bites, I have to admit — it actually works. It’s a simple suction tool that pulls out irritants like saliva or venom left behind by bugs, and it really does reduce swelling and itchiness if you use it right after getting bitten. The tool is compact, easy to clean, and safe for kids and adults. It’s painless, though the suction feels a little weird at first. I’ve used it on mosquito bites and minor bee stings with noticeable relief within minutes — especially on those bites that normally swell up and itch like crazy for days. A few tips: Use it ASAP after the bite for best results. Don’t over-suction — it can leave a small red mark if you hold it too long. Doesn’t work as well on older bites or tick bites. Pros: Drug-free, chemical-free relief Works quickly when used immediately Safe for all ages Reusable and travel-friendly Cons: Requires some trial and error to use properly Not effective on all types of bites (e.g., spider or old bites) Can leave temporary redness if overused Overall, this is a great tool to have on hand, especially if you’re outdoors a lot or have kids who attract every mosquito in a 10-mile radius. It’s not a miracle cure, but it really helps take the edge off bites without the need for creams or meds. 👍 If this review helped, feel free to click “Helpful” — I always appreciate it!

THANK YOU!! Let me give you the rundown on this. I swell up like a balloon from mosquito bites and I will literally itch for days. If you can put this thing on your bite within a few hours you'll be in really good shape but what we do is literally put it on the same bite 2 to 3 times and yes it does make a hickey mark and yes I do not care - at all. I'd rather have a round hickey mark on top of my bite and no itching any day of the week. The only thing I will say is if it bites you on a part of your body that doesn't have a lot of flesh like the front of your shin, or tonight I was bitten on the top of my hand, it doesn't suck very well because there's just not enough flesh/fat for it to grab. Everywhere else on my body it does a tremendous job! Those little %$#@ bit the crap out of my hand tonight because it was the only thing that I didn't have covered! I'm super grateful for this because nothing else works for me!!

This product has a flaw. The reversible suction cap always splits. It might take a few months. But it will split. Then it's unusable. Do you buy a new one? If you contact the company they know it's an issue and will send new caps to you. But still a pain.

This is the second one I have bought for our household. I won’t go outside without it. We are recent transplants to Florida, and these are the meanest mosquitoes I’ve ever met. Sure, the Louisiana mosquitoes are the size of hummingbirds, but they’re not real go-getters unless you’re in the swamp. These Florida mosquitoes are sociopathic. Insanely aggressive and their bites are nasty and itchy. AND THEY ARE IN OUR BACKYARD! Two days ago I was in the yard and was attacked by a gang of these creatures. They dive-bombed me from all angles and chomped down on me more or less simultaneously. Side note: At the same time I learned that “natural” bug repellent made with essential oils might work on less ambitious mosquitoes, but it didn’t work with these. I ran inside to avoid further attack and grabbed the Bug Thing. I had a huge bite on my forehead (one of 12 bites in total), and it itched like crazy. I didn’t want to do to my face what I did to my arm a few years ago, scratching like a maniac while I slept and ending up with a scarred arm and blood-stained sheets. So I busted out the Bug Thing. In my eagerness to get rid of the itching, and because the bite was big, I kept the suction going for a long time. Too long, as it turns out. I didn’t read the instructions with our first Bug Thing, because it seemed self-explanatory, but the devil’s always in the details, isn’t it? Turns out, there’s a big fat warning about not using it on your face. Who knew? (Everyone who read the instructions, but not the girl with the big purple circle on her forehead.) I regret NOTHING. This thing works amazingly well, and so what if I have a quarter-sized love bite on my forehead? Big whoop. THE BUG THING IMMEDIATELY STOPPED THE ITCHING. Bruises go away; scars from fingernails, not so much. Another word of advice: I bought several of a knock-off brand, thinking, “It’s a plastic barrel with a plunger, how hard could it be to replicate?” I guess fairly hard, because the knock-offs were flimsy and I couldn’t really get a good vacuum with them. I mean, I guess I wouldn’t have been able to suck a ridiculous bruise to the surface of my face with one of the knock-offs, but I probably wouldn’t have been able to suck the itch juice out of my skin, either. I’d much rather have a bruise than a bite. Anyway, this thing is awesome, just don’t use it on your face…or do. I would100% do it again.

I have Skeeter Syndrome . Mosquito bites on me are an ORDEAL. They swell and get big and nasty so I hide inside. Last summer I discovered this Bug Bite Thing and I have never been happier. I used to have bites that itched for days and weeks and huge welts on my arms and legs but since using this I have only had big welts when I haven’t had my BBT on hand! My only complaint is that it can be really difficult for me to suction the whole way depending on where I am trying to use it. So the design could probably use some editing but besides this, it’s a true miracle product!

As I get older mosquito bites are becoming a real problem. I hate bug spray but forced to use it constantly. If you use this shortly after you discover your itching from a bite 8 times out of 10 it should work. Prevents the bite from going further and never bothering you again or at least diminishes the itch so much that it’s not a problem anymore. Leaves a ring that disappears quick enough on your skin. For elderly adults I would caution to not leave the suction too long for I could see it bruising their skin. I keep it in my bag and feel happy to be able to help myself should I get a bite. Not hard to use and may give you relief. Worth checking out. It’s an ok price. I will see how long this gadget lasts. But I get the impression it’s not going to lose its suction might anytime soon .
