The Extractor

by Sawyer

Product Features

• For removal of poisons from bee and wasp stings, mosquito bites & more.
• 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.
• 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 Vacuum Pump was designed specifically to provide the most powerful suction available for the safe extraction of venoms and poisons.

5.0 out of 5 stars 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.

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.

1.0 out of 5 stars Forget suction, December 17, 2008

"Sucking out venom, either by mouth or with a pump, does not work and may harm the affected area directly." [..]) Also forget cutting and restricting as suggested in this kit (see snakebite at Wikipedia). As for bug / spider bites: "Do not cut or apply suction to the wound." [..]. Studies show the only positive results are placebo effects. Finally, WebMD states "Do not suck on the bite wound or use any kind of extraction device" as well as "Do not use a constriction band, such as a tourniquet or bandage, on a bite." Just thought you might want to know.
