For Removal of Poisons from Snakebites, Bee and Wasp Stings, Mosquito Bites, and More

The Extractor Vacuum Pump was designed specifically to provide the most powerful suction available for the safe extraction of venoms and poisons.

Effective Treatment for Bites from:
 
  • Snakes
  • Bees
  • Wasps
  • Hornets
  • Spiders
  • Ants
  • Mosquitoes
  • Ticks
  • Flies
  • Scorpions
* If used immediately after bite or sting; seek medical attention if you suspect a Brown Recluse or Black Widow bite.
At a Glance

Because the Extractor's double chamber pump action is so powerful, you will not need to use the dangerous scalpel blades or knives associated with less effective bite kits. Because it's a pump and not a syringe, it's easy to use with one hand.

Just select which of the four plastic cups best covers the bitten area, attach it to the pump, then a simple push of the plunger with your thumb and the Extractor Pump will quickly and effectively remove venoms and poisons from below your skin. By simply cleaning the cups after each use you may safely reuse the pump over and over again.

The Extractor can most effectively retrieve venom from the portions of the body that are outside muscle areas. In muscle areas of the body such as the calf muscles the venom enters the circulatory system much more quickly and the Extractor is not as effective in removing venom in these areas. Retrieving venom can significantly improve your treatment results.

The Technology

  • The Extractor Pump is the only medically approved device for treating snakebites. When used quickly after a bite, treatment results may be significantly improved. Some doctors recommend carrying and applying two pumps, one for each fang bite site.
  • The pump has been used successfully for over 30 years as an adjunct in the treatment of snakebites and for bee sting venom removal. The pump is not a replacement for quickly seeking professional medical treatment. The victim should also be taken to a hospital for further examination and medical treatment.
  • The Extractor Pump is also a safe and useful first aid device for treating bee and wasp stings as well as spider, scorpion, fly, or mosquito bites.
  • If you are known to be allergic and carry an Epipen pen, this is in no way a substitute; however, rapid relief from the pain or itching from a bite can be achieved. Retrieving venom from a snakebite can significantly improve treatment results. The effectiveness of the Extractor Pump varies with the location of the bite. Most snakebites occur in extremities (arms, lower legs, feet, and ankles). Venom often pools outside of the muscles in bites to the hands, feet and ankles. The Extractor Pump can most effectively retrieve venom that is pooled outside muscle areas. In large muscle mass areas, such as the calf muscle, venom enters the circulatory system much more quickly and the Extractor Pump is not as effective in removing venom in these areas.

    Insect bites and stings leave venom, poison, or itchy compounds close to the skin's surface where they can easily be retrieved. Best results occur when applying the pump quickly before the fluids enter the circulatory system. However, mosquito bites can often be treated successfully hours after a bite.

Product Description

Sawyer Extractor Pump Kit extracts venom and poisons from the bites and stings of snakes, bees, wasps, mosquitos and more. The Extractor's double chamber vacuum pump action is designed to provide powerful suction for the extraction of venoms and poisons without the need for scalpel blades or knives used in other kits. Because it's a pump, not a syringe, it's easy to use with one hand. When using select one of the 4 plastic cups that will best cover the bitten area and attach it to the pump, then using your thumb simply push the plunger and the extractor pump will quickly and effectively remove venoms and poisons from beneath your skin. By simply cleaning the cups after each use you can safely reuse the pump many times over. The Sawyer Extractor is most effective at retrieving venom outside of the muscle areas of the body. Retrieving venom quickly can significantly improve treatment results by medical practitioners. In muscle areas such as the calf muscles, venom quicly enters the circulatory system and an extractor pump is less effective.

Many Varied Uses July 28, 2010
By Lester
Amazon Verified Purchase
This extractor is great for a VARIETY of uses. It's great for it's intended purpose, such as bug bites, bee stings, etc., but it is also great for getting out splinters, glass slivers, blackheads, etc. It has an incredibly strong suction capability. Yet, is not painful, and does not leave a mark.

Saved my trip! July 11, 2010
While camping in the Allegheny Mountains, something bit or stung me on the calf. Not knowing what it was, I figured I'd wait and see if I started having any kind of reaction to it. Sure enough, within about thirty seconds, the area became tender, puffy, and I had a severe burning pain at the wound site. After a few minutes with the Extractor, though, the pain was completely gone, and with minimal bruising from the suction, too. The other really nice thing about the Extractor is that it is relatively easy to use one-handed, and the plastic attachments are very easy to clean and sterilize between uses.

Don't be without one! June 30, 2009
After reading a brief mention in the scout handbook I went to the local outfitters to check this thing out. Looked like a quality product so I purchased one. I've used this countless times on mosquito bites, and stings(I've been lucky enough NOT to have tried it on a snakebite) - this thing works wonders. Mosquito bites are reduced to a non-itching red mark overnight - I used to itch FOR DAYS. Stings as well are made better quickly after using this wonderful device. Usually sells for between $15 & $25 depending on where you shop but either price is a BARGAIN and no family should be without one.
