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.
The most common occurrence of insect bites is a rash. Although insect repellents can prevent various insect bites, sometimes, there is no stopping the menace of getting bitten by these bugs. The most common occurrence when an insect bites is a rash. These rashes are red and cause itchy bumps on top of the skin. The rash is, in fact, an allergic reaction to substances that enter when the insect bites. Most insect bites cause a mild reaction while others cause serious, sometimes, life-threatening reactions.
