The Bug Bite Thing seems to have a similar miraculous effect for my family. I was initially skeptical, but it works surprisingly well. Also, no need to fiddle with batteries.

My son gets horrible blisters from mosquito bites (skeeter syndrome). Bought him a bug bite thing out of desperation on our last trip south and was blown away to see how well it worked to keep the swelling down.

In my experience, it only really works if you do it within 5 minutes or so — but if you do it's absolutely magical.

It's even better for bee stings.

I’ll have to try.

Once you have had enough bee stings, they hurt briefly then stop. But 3 days later you get itchy.

I’m good at getting stung, not so good at beekeeping.

I was similarly skeptical and impressed with how effective it was. +1 for the bug bite thing.
