Suction cup system for tick and insect bites

You need to decide if you want to use something like this or not.... It is a series of suction cups for insect bites. If you are bitten, you put the appropriate cup on the syringe and push the lever. It creates a strong suction that pulls the blood and, hopefully, any venom or disease out of the bite.

There are some schools of thought that say this might make things worse. I keep a kit in the car and one in our first aid kit. A while back, I was bitten by a small jumping spider which caused a very painful wound. I immediately used the suction kit and got instant relief.

Sawyer Tick Pliers

It is important when removing ticks to make sure you don't crush them. When a tick is crushed, the organisms, including Lyme disease, can be pushed into your bloodstream.

These pliers are specifically designed to remove ticks without crushing them.
