How To Use This Thing - 3 Easy Steps
Our Most Recent Awards
Kelley Higney and Ellen McAlister

Bug Bite Thing was founded in 2017 by Kelley Higney and her mother Ellen McAlister, a seasoned entrepreneur. Kelley’s daughters, like her, were both “mosquito magnets.” A​fter many failed attempts to find relief by using creams and trying home remedies, Kelley decided to research how other countries combat insect bites. She discovered an innovative product that used suction to remove the insect saliva/venom and eliminate the itching, stinging, and swelling, instead of masking the symptoms. ​Amazed by the effectiveness of the product, Kelley knew she had to make it readily available and offer other families relief. In ​October 2019, Kelley and Ellen appeared on ABC’s hit show, “Shark Tank” and pitched to the Sharks to invest in their business. After receiving offers from all the Sharks, they decided to strike a deal with Lori Greiner. Since appearing on “Shark Tank,” Bug Bite Thing’s business has flourished and the company is on its way to becoming a global household name.

708 customers mention "Suction"395 positive313 negative

Customers are mixed about the suction of the medication. Some mention that the sucker is pretty powerful and you run the risk of giving yourself a hickey. They like that the top comes off for smaller suction areas and that it's like magic in a tiny suction cup. Others say that it wouldn't gain suction on this part because it had too many bends. They also say that you'd have to suction directly after a bite for it to do the job and that you may have to readjust the sucession and try again several times on non-flat skin.

"We were pleasantly surprised at the effectiveness of the suction tool! It helped immensely to lesson and to shorten the discomfort from tick bites...." Read more

Customers are dissatisfied with the effectiveness of the medication. They mention that it does not get rid of the bite all together, it worsens the current bite, and leaves them with scars or marks. They also say that it doesn't prevent bites, it makes getting bitten more tolerable, and that the bites also swell up and itch terribly, sometimes for days. Customers also say it is ineffective for fresh bites and that it looks gnarly after the treatment.

"...know if you have them where you live but their bite is painful, they bite fast, and it itches for at least a week. I did manage to kill the critter...." Read more

"...There is a slight ring that remains from the section, but that will go away…a very small price to pay for the relief!..." Read more

"...They itch for DAYS and leave scars from hyperpigmentation...." Read more

"...Recently she got several bites and I used this on her and she didn’t scratch the bites. I am pleased with it." Read more

"...I used it numerous times. It left a bruise on my leg, but better than the bad reaction I've had in the past...." Read more

257 customers mention "Quality"74 positive183 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the quality of the medication. They mention that it's not very strong at all, has a lack of reliability, and breaks easily. Some say that the itching lasts a full 2 weeks and the bites take more. They also say that it wears off in a few hours and that it is not as effective on bendy or small places, such as a bite on the knuckles.

"...This is my third time purchasing this and I find that it somehow cracks on the side and the suction doesn't work as well...." Read more

"Hard to believe but this thing really works. It's not as effective on bendy or small places, such as a bite on the knuckles of your hand but it..." Read more

I got this bug bite thing last year. Then I put it somewhere that I wouldn't lose it. Then I forgot where I put it for safe keeping. Fast forward to 1 year later. I happened to be rummaging through a drawer and found it. About a week later, I was walking the dog in the afternoon and got bit by a yellow fly. I don't know if you have them where you live but their bite is painful, they bite fast, and it itches for at least a week. I did manage to kill the critter. I went and got the Bug Bite Thing and applied it as directed. I didn't expect it would work, but it did. I had to use it several times to get relief but it did take the pain and the itch away. I took the barrel apart to clean it and there was a miniscule amount of fluid present in the collection area. It is now evening and I am comfortable and there is NO pain or itching at the bite site. It's cheap, it's painless and it really does work. I recommend it.

I just received this little tool this morning and used it immediately on two 3-day old mosquito bites that were still itching…and IT REALLY WORKED! One bite only took one try…while the other one took two tries (perhaps there was more of s scab to penetrate as it was scratched more?). There is a slight ring that remains from the section, but that will go away…a very small price to pay for the relief! It is now 20 minutes later and there is still no itch! If this little tool works on older bites, I’m very confident that it’ll work on an immediate bite even better! I am buying more to distribute to family and friends! Thank you!

Lucky me! My 18-yr-old indoor cat ran out at night and was gone for over an hour. There is a pack of coyotes that has a den 2 blocks away, in the direction he ran. He would occasionally run out and bounce around the front yard for 5-10 minutes to get me to play “chase the kitty”, but if I didn’t want to play, he’d come right back. That night, I think he was playing “chase me” with the neighborhood rabbits. (I’m sure he had more fun than they did!)

I am lucky! He came home!!- but brought fleas with him. I ordered fogger, and sticky strips, and this tool. The next morning, I laundered all of the bedding in hot water. That afternoon my veterinarian sold me flea treatment that would be safe for my 2 old cats, and I treated everything with diatomaceous earth, since the foggers didn’t arrive till the next day.

Unfortunately, I had been bitten several times before this bug bite tool arrived the next day, and I had big allergic welts. I tried the bug bite tool on all of the bites, and it only worked on the one from this morning that still had the small white center. I used the tool 3x, and still had to squeeze out the last of the white center.

If I haven’t gotten rid of every flea, I’ll use this tool at the first itch! And I’ll be super careful going in and out of the door, since an old cat is faster than an old lady!

We were pleasantly surprised at the effectiveness of the suction tool! It helped immensely to lesson and to shorten the discomfort from tick bites. It also helped with chigger bite discomfort.
The tweezer is a great option - using it specifically for ticks, instead of having to use the tweezer we use for every other need in the house is a bonus!
We live among wooded areas and have dogs who need walks on paths through the wooded areas so it is pretty impossible for us to avoid tick & chigger issues so my husband & I are very happy to have found these tools.

It works immediately on mosquito bites, which I did expect. What I did not expect was to step on a bee pretty much immediately after purchasing this. As I was limping into my kitchen, screaming and crying to my husband saying "I'VE KILLED ONE! THE BEES NOW KNOW MY FACE! THE BEE MAFIA IS COMING FOR ME!" I somehow managed to ask him to get the mosquito thing out of my vanity drawer. Not only did it extract the stinger painlessly, but I have had absolutely no swelling and minimal pain. I'm so impressed.

I bought this to take on a Caribbean vacation because mosquitoes love me. It arrived yesterday. Almost 2 weeks ago I was stung repeatedly on my ankle by a yellow jacket. The swelling, burning, and especially itching has gotten worse every day since. Last night I was ready to cut my foot off when I decided to give this a try. I sucked my entire ankle area because I couldn’t tell exactly where the stings were. Instant relief! Instant! Like a miracle and it’s like I never got stung. There was some liquid in the cap which I assume was venom. It’s just a cheap little plastic thing, but it works! Some reviews say it’s too big to use on fingers, but the cap is reversible to have a smaller suction hole for fingers and toes. That suction seems weak but I haven’t tried it on a bite yet.

Seems to work if you get to the bite within a few hours or at least the same day. I started using this because the Benedryl creme just does not seem effective anymore (although I bought new creme). Sometimes it takes more than one application.

The Bug Thing works! I have used it as has my family. It takes the itch out, hands down. Fortunately we only had misquote bites to try them out on. I purchased 3 and will have to reorder because everyone wants to try them. I want my own as sharing is overrated. They can be washed with soap and water and are sturdy enough to last. Great stocking stuffer if going on vacation as well.
