Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether over-the-counter OTC use of the ZapperClick device employing the piezo-electricity principle is effective in reducing itching associated with mosquito bites
Detailed Description:
The ZapperClick is a therapeutic device that employs the piezo-electricity principle to soothe itching and ease the swelling from mosquito and horsefly bites as well as jellyfish and nettle stings It accomplishes this by discharging 13KV at 07mA for 10 microseconds over the area of the bite or sting each time it is activated In this clinical study only the indication of reducing itching from mosquito bites will be evaluated The theory behind the devices effectiveness is that multiple high voltage low current electrical discharges over a bug bite or sting generates warmth over the immediate area of the bite or sting which inhibits the histamine release thus relieving the symptoms of itching and swelling arising from the bite or sting The device is a quick simple and painless means of reducing the annoying symptoms of mosquito bites
