It really does work!

I have been using Heat It for about a month. I had low expectations, but now I am very happy. I don’t understand how, but this thing does get itch out!

Great zapper

I’ve had other handheld zappers and I lose them easily. This one is nice bc I can leave it on a keychain. Additionally the app is so easy to use. I also like that it has different settings. Definitely recommend

This app and device are AMAZING

I’ve tried all the home remedies for mosquito bites and they all are ultimately not successful. This WORKS. And love how the app is triggered to launch when the device is plugged in!
