A finalist at The Inspired Home Show Global Innovations Awards for Product Design in the Bath & Personal Care category, the Bug Bite Thing is a suction tool that extracts insect saliva/venom from under the skin to help alleviate the itching, stinging and swelling that occurs with bug bites and stings.
The idea on which the Bug Bite Thing operates is that if you remove the irritant, the body stops producing the reaction that is causing the uncomfortable symptoms.
Unlike topical creams and ointments, the company maintained, the problem is eliminated, not masked.
The price on bugbitething.com is $9.99.
