Worked great on a beesting,

This review is from: Sawyer Extractor Professional Snake Bite & Insect Sting Kit
Up until last fall I'd always felt a little silly about carrying it, and as far as snakes go, it may not be effective for all bites, but...
Soon after we saw a rattlesnake curled between two boulders on the side of a narrow trail I got stung by a bee, which I'm somewhat allergic to. We were able to draw out the venom so I only had a minor rash, no swelling or pain. I figure it's worth it, just for taking the pain/swelling out of insect stings.

Many Varied Uses,

This review is from: Sawyer Extractor Professional Snake Bite & Insect Sting Kit
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.

... a must-have in the outdoors,
By madeinusa (oc, ca) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sawyer Extractor Professional Snake Bite & Insect Sting Kit
I think this is a must-have for anyone who enjoys the outdoors. It covers prevention and treatment of snake bites, bee stings, scorpions stings, tick bites, etc, etc, etc in the included manual. And this isn't just a syringe you use for suction -- this is designed for its intended purpose and I can easily use it one-handed.
To use it you just select one of the four "heads" that matches your "bite size", attach it and pull the plunger out, cover your bite, then push the plunger down. It does the work for you after that, slowly extending the plunger out on its own and creating a lot of suction that draws out the cooties. Easy to use on yourself. The kit weighs 3.6oz and that's including the plastic box, a disposable razor (for shaving hair/creating good suction), two afterbite sting/pain relief wipes, two alcohol wipes, and a comprehensive manual(although mostly common sense). Just the guts (four heads and extractor tool) weigh 1.1oz. Most first aid kits will have alcohol/bite wipes but if not, you will now.
