In 2016, STINGbye had put on sale the hair ties lice protectors.  According to Silvia Oviedo, general manager of STINGbye, "Our tie is designed to save a lot of headaches for parents and their children. We saw a clear need in the market and so we decided to develop this article. The hair tie lice protector has the same effectiveness as all STINGbye clothes and like all other fabrics we manufacture, they are 50% polyester and 50% cotton and do not cause allergies.”

STINGbye items are suitable for people of all ages and are perfect clothes to enjoy outdoor activities or trips to areas exposed to mosquitoes and other vectors in complete safety.
