Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does Biteshield actually work? Biteshield works from the inside out by supporting your skin microbiome — the ecosystem of bacteria on your skin that influences the chemical signals your body sends to insects. Some people naturally attract more bugs due to their unique biochemistry. Biteshield's 3-in-1 formula helps reduce those signals, balance your immune response to bites (reducing the severity of bites symptoms like redness and itchiness), and support faster skin healing — all with one daily capsule.

Q: How long does it take to start working? Most people notice a difference within 3-7 days of consistent daily use, with full efficacy reached after 2 weeks. Because Biteshield works by gradually optimizing your skin microbiome, it builds stronger protection over time. We recommend starting at least 2 weeks before your trip or the start of bug season for full effectiveness.

Q: What are the ingredients? Biteshield uses an all-natural formula designed to support skin barrier health, microbiome balance, and immune function. Every ingredient is DEET-free and free from harsh chemicals. You can view the full supplement facts label in the product images below.

Q: Is it safe to take every day? Yes. Biteshield is made with natural ingredients that support overall skin and gut health. It's designed for consistent daily use. As with any supplement, if you're pregnant, nursing, or on medication, consult your doctor before starting.

Q: Do I still need to use bug spray? Many of our customers find they no longer need topical sprays with consistent Biteshield use. That said, Biteshield works great alongside other protection methods — there's no conflict with sprays or repellents if you want extra coverage in heavy-exposure environments.

Q: What happens if I miss a day? Because Biteshield builds cumulative protection through your skin microbiome, missing a day here and there won't reset your progress. That said, daily consistency gives you the strongest results.

Q: Does it work against all biting insects? Biteshield is formulated to reduce your overall attractiveness to mosquitoes and other common biting insects. Individual results may vary depending on your body chemistry and the insect species in your area. The anti-inflammatory and fast-healing properties will be equally effective for all environmental irritants.

Q: What if it doesn't work for me? We stand behind Biteshield with a money-back guarantee. If you're not satisfied with your results, contact us and we'll make it right.
