Insect Bites (Definition) Insect bites are from mosquitos, spiders, flies, ticks, and other species that use their mandibles (jaws) to attach to a person or other animal. They can then suck blood out of their prey and leave saliva proteins that cause itching and swelling.
A mosquito bite can cause an itchy red blister, which may disappear without treatment. However, scratching can cause infection, and if a skin rash develops, an allergic reaction may have occurred. One can use insect repellents and window screens as protection against mosquito bites.
