The Bite Away stick helps in 70% of cases. Unfortunately, not all bites. Sometimes you have to use it more than once to a tenacious stitches. We would buy it again. I am very sorry for himself, the bite away is a bit painful, but compared to the annoying itching insect bites, it is only a 3 seconds (left blue button above) (right blue button copies the short pain selectable in 2 variants, or 6 seconds above ). We are glad to have this anti-itch stick, because we like to prick the mosquitoes love and our blood unfortunately :(
