About The Bug Bite Thing -- Summary:
We were completely unprepared for the mosquitoes after moving to Florida from California! My oldest daughter, who was just six-months-old at the time, suffers terribly from mosquito bites and none of the over-the-counter remedies worked. We began avoiding the outdoors. I knew there had to be a better way!

I began to research how other countries were combating insect bites and stings and I came across a little known suction tool.

I created the Bug Bite Thing brand and began selling the tool at farmers’ markets and bake sales at my daughter’s school. Parents started tracking me down in the school parking lot and said Bug Bite Thing was a game changer for their family and improved their quality of life. I knew that I was on to something! I sold my house and used that money to buy my first big batch of inventory.

Bug Bite Thing remains Amazon’s #1 selling product for insect bite relief with over 50,000 reviews! We’re continuing our global expansion and thrilled to be carried by over 30,000 retail locations including CVS Pharmacy, JOANN’s, Rite Aid, The Home Depot, Walgreen and more!
