Travellers should wash the removable tip on the other side between uses to get the most out of the gadget.
However, avoid getting the rest of the device wet to prevent losing the suction mechanism.
The popular product claimed it could also be used to remove splinters, thorns or bee spikes.
"Bug Bite Things" has urged users not to apply the suction device on their face or neck as there is a larger risk of leaving a mark on these sensitive areas.
Not all of those who bought the gadget were impressed with the item.
"Unfortunately, they did not work at all, a very poor item, I would advise you not to waste your money," an unhappy customer wrote.
Another added: "Be careful when using this, it can cause a lot of bruising (much like a hickie!) if you use it for more than 5 seconds.
"Plus it leaves a big bruise for a long time after.
"Not impressed and actually find it quite dangerous."
It comes after a "magical device" received heaps of praise for putting an end to one of the few downsides of going away on holiday.
