User questions & answers

Question:	Will this provide relief if not used until the first time until the second day or later
Answer:	I've never waited that long and my impression is that it works best if used immediately. The abstract of the testing administered the bite-away heat after 2 minutes, 5 minutes and 10 minutes. If you can only use it after 2 days, then it probably isn't the best solution.
Question:	How effective is it on fire ant bites? I hate them
Answer:	It will definitely help with them. You might have to use it several times to get relief, because fire ants and one heck of a sting.
Question:	will it work for spider bites
Answer:	Thank you for your inquiry into the use of the bite away® for spider bites. The bite away® has been FDA Cleared for use against pesky insect bites. Spiders are arachnids therefore they are not members of the insect family. Arachnid bites can result in the transmission of pathogens and venoms and our product can not prevent nor reverse pathogens and venom transmissions. We can not advise the use of the bite away® for spider bites.
Question:	Does it work on Acne
Answer:	According to the NASA study (you can google NASA acne device), the treatment requires delivery temperature of 47c for 2 minutes. That's how the Zeno device works. With a PID temp regulator hooked to a heat source (such as a glue gun) you can create a similar device that doesn't require expensive refills for about $30. Back to your question, the answer is no, this device is much hotter and runs for much shorter periods because it's designed to break down enzymes near your skin surface instead of killing bacteria much deeper down.

Product features

Question:	Does it work on flea bites
Answer:	I haven’t experienced flea bites, it has worked for me on a variety of others bug and spider bites.
