Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was skeptical, but this thing really does seem to neutralize mosquito bites. I was worried that the heat would burn and leave a scar, but there is no evidence of that. I plan to continue using it, because mosquitos love to bite my skin, and my other remedy -- Campho Phenique -- leaves oil on the skin. My one suggestion: they should add a keychain or a slipcase to make it pocket-friendly.

The heat burn hurts like crazy but for only the time it is on your skin. There is no residual pain. But it seems to work. It helps minimize the itching sensation but not fully obliterates the itch.

This is the modern replacement for the old hot spoon on a bite trick. It does hurt but the momentary pain removes days of itching. Less itching means it heals quicker. I like it.

I really wondered how effective this would be. I'm impressed. We've used it on wasp stings and mosquito bites and it really seemed to help the symptoms and help things heal faster. Be careful though. At the full 6 seconds, it gets quite hot. But, that is much better than the itching.

Works just it stated. I was pleasantly surprised when I used this on a mosquito bite and it took the itch away. Now I can heal up in a couple days instead of a couple weeks!

Love this. Takes the itch away instantly. Once you get used to the initial heat, you can keep using it and it does help. My kids even use it for their bites.

This little device really does the job. One word of caution. There is a mild burning effect that your feel from the heating. So, little ones may not like that, i found out first hand.

My son-in-law purchased one of these last year. I tried it out, it worked so i had to get one. The only drawback is that the pad gets very hot, but that’s what kills the itch. I’ve already used mine several times and am glad i got it.

I am allergic to bites, which swell a lot. If I use the Bite Healer right away, the bug bites disappear like magic. If you wait or aren’t able to use right away in order to kill the “poison” before it penetrates; than you may need to use the 6 second setting, or do more than once on the 3 second setting. For those sensitive to pain, you will definitely feel the burn, but its just a couple of seconds, well worth it for instant relief!

This works. Think of this like the hot spoon treatment for bug bites, but it is not for the faint of heart. It gets much, much, much hotter. If you have issues with seconds of intense focused pain, this is not for you, but if you can handle it, the benefits are worth it!

I have been doing a lot of yard work lately. Given the summer heat and sunny days, I do my yard work late in the evening. This attracts a ton of bugs on me. We have a lot of mosquitoes in general since we have a reservoir right behind our home. I tried bug spray but as my feet and hands get wet in the water, the bug spray gets washed away. I found this insect bite healer and I was very skeptical initially. To be honest the positive review made me try it out. Let me enunciate, it freaking works! I don't know how. Don't ask me but it works. You might, very likely, scream the very first time you will use it on yourself. It tries to burn the skin and inflammation on your skin. You will quickly get used to it though. My five-year-old kid got used to it and has no trouble in using it. Go with the 3-sec setting. Overall, you won't regret your purchase and no more relentlessly scratching your skin.

When mosquitos bite me, and they DO, A LOT, the bite area swells up to the size of a silver dollar coin and itches beyond belief. I once scratched a bite to the point of getting infected. That was really unpleasant and took quite a while to heal. I have tried all the usual remedies, including the topical analgesics and antihistamine based solutions. They offered varying degrees of relief, albeit temporary, at best. This device, however, actually works and works well. I bought it on sale and had reward points which made it a no brainer to purchase. It does what it claims it will do, and it does so painlessly and easily. I can sit on my deck in the evenings once again.

Love this thing! It works best if you can catch the bite right after it happens, but still works when it doesn't. It isn't something I would use on a kid, as it can be painful, but as an adult, I know that the minor discomforting pain ileads to sweet itch-relief.

Just got this and had a chance to try it within a day. It is pretty uncomfortable and was thinking there would be burnt skin when it was done. However, no burnt skin, and the itch was gone. Very cool, and worth dealing with 6 seconds of discomfort.

We have a problem with mosquitoes where we live. Bought this without much expectation, but am pleasantly surprised at its effectiveness in reducing the itching of the bites! I don't think I have noticed the swelling in the bites going away, but the itching definitely does. It is very simple to use! The one complaint I would have is how small the heating plate is. You need to be pretty precise. But this is a minor thing and hasn't caused any issues. As other reviews have mentioned, it does get pretty hot. Depending on what part of the body you apply it, will depend on how much that may bother you. But it does have a 3 second option (as opposed to 6 seconds) for more sensitive skin.

Im very skeptical about products like these. Went out on a limb and tried it out and i am DEFINITELY satisfied. It burns just a little so you have yo rub it a bit but it gets rid of the bites and most importantly, THE ITCHING! 10 out of 10 recommend!

A cute design. If you remember to bring this along all the time, it indeed works! It is best to use immediately after being bitten. The heat is a bit intenstive to sustain for the last few seconds.

This is an excellent product! You do feel it get very hot for a few seconds, which is a little uncomfortable, but that feeling disappears quickly. After, no more itching! Incredible!

How? I have no idea, but i bought one to try. We camp and bot sets of grandparents live near wooded areas. Got a bite and was excited to try it out excluding the crazy need to itch the spot stung. Grabbed the healer put it over the bite and was shocked by the tingle of heat felt through the pad, I was not expecting that at all. The need to itch went down substantially immediately. It did not disappear but was greatly lessened. Within 5 minuts of application the need to itch is completely gone. I may buy a few of these to keep in cars and not just in the first aid kit. Incredible piece. Going to be interesting to use on the kids with the heat treatment portion.

Excellent product! I was skeptical when I bought it but it really works. I wouldn’t not recommend it for a child since burns a little for a few seconds but totally worth the “pain”
