So a friend has one of these electronic mosquito bite "healers" that apply heat (and lots of it) to the bite and supposedly denatures the proteins of the insects saliva or whatever and I let her use it on me (not on the previously described bite) and after she was done my colleague said he had one too and wanted to try it as well and in milliseconds he was yelling out really really loud out of pain and suprise :D Everyone in the beach bar winced and looked at us, haha!
@Virelai (Men are weak... 😁 )
@Julia Amen :D
@Virelai but in principle this method of heating the bite early works for me. I seldom get bites I recon but when I recon one, I use my heated lighter cover an it's fine. (You should wait a moment until it is not giving you a brand mark ;-) )
@vilbi yeah I think so too and the one she treated is slightly less swolllen as the other ones - but we didn't treat it right away so I can't really say!
@Virelai
Had the fortunat of trying one myself and while I'm not sure they worked that well ( I probably used it to late it wrong) I only found it very slightly uncomfortable. 🤔
@sandzwerg I think it was too late for mine too and I usually don't notice them right away so I'm not totally convinced either
@Virelai
Im not sure how fast you have to be but as I had to ask a college it mostly was quite a bit later. It still felt better at least short time. Maybe the mosquitoes here are just really really bad because autsch :x
He was like "I didn't expect that at all, Laura didn't even flinch or show any signs of discomfort?!?! Oh my god..."
