  1. insect bite

    An insect bite is the puncturing and penetration of the skin of a human or animal by an insect such as a mosquito, tick, bed bug, flea, bee, ant or other bug. This action is often used by insects as a mechanism for feeding or self-defense, and it may cause a reaction ranging from mild irritation to serious infectious diseases. Some insect bites can also inject saliva, venom, or pathogens causing itchiness, swelling, redness, pain, or transmission of diseases like malaria, Lyme disease and Zika virus.
