Insect stings and mosquito bites can result in skin pain, irritation and itching! Thanks to Bite Away, a minor bite or irritation doesn't need to turn into an ongoing issue. From the first application, bite away can provide fast relief from the itching, pain and swelling caused by insect bites. In the back yard or when traveling, you can hardly avoid being confronted by mosquitoes, wasps, bees, hornets, horse flies, chiggers and other pests. Thanks to Bite Away, however, a minor bite or sting doesn't need to turn into a major drama. The bite away is simple and easy to use. Place the smooth surface that is made of ceramic, on the bite or sting. After pressing 1 of the 2 buttons just once (3-seconds for more sensitive skin/5-seconds for a regular application) a temperature of around 124°F is reached and maintained for the selected time. If the device is applied immediately after the sting or bite, the symptoms can usually be prevented completely. Even if the device is used slightly later, the symptoms can still subside sooner. This device is FDA cleared and Dermatologist tested to be safe and effective for ages 2 and up. It is free of chemicals and is suitable for pregnant women, children and allergy suffers. The Bite Away is the size of a pen and comes with 2 AA batteries to power the device, so it is ready to go at any time.
