    It Worked For Us!
    It only took 2 days for my son to stop sucking his thumb with "STOP" painted on his thumb. He is 4 1/2 and really WANTED to stop, but just couldnt kick the habit to suck in the car, when watching TV or sleeping. This was just the thing to remind him. I read reviews saying some children complained that it made their finger foods taste bad, so we just painted it on the tops of his thumb and it was plenty to deter the sucking. Good luck!

    Wow. This Was The Last Straw, And It Worked.
    Finally! Tried other products, nothing worked. This is the solution, buy it. Have a second grade boy, constantly has his fingers in his mouth, not a thumb sucker. Even sucks on his shirt sleeves and collar, whatever is available. Now he doesnt do any of these. Great product. Took a few applications, applied it when he was sleeping, dries very quickly.

    Great
    My daughter is almost 6 and we have tried everything, I mean it. We duct taped, had her wear gloves, tried thumb polish, tobasco, vinegar, bribed, threatened.......but Mavala worked! We put it on every three days for a week or so and she has stopped. It has been several weeks since we stopped and she hasnt sucked even in the middle of the night. It is great! However, I dont think it works for babies. I think the child has to understand what the goal is. I tried it with my 14 mo old and he would taste it, hate it, and then go to his thumb for comfort only to have that yucky taste again, and actually vomited twice so we decided maybe he was not ready for it. But Im not as stressed about him sucking now because Im sure we will be able to stop it well before he is 5 like his sister was.

    Works Great
    I bought this for my 2 1/2 year old son that was constantly sucking his thumb. After putting it on he was disgusted with the taste. He tried to put his thumb in his mouth maybe 3 or 4 more times and then stopped completely. I stopped putting it on after 4 days and caught him sucking in his sleep. So I put it on 1 more time and I have not seen him even attempting to suck his thumb (after 2 weeks). Its been over 1 week that I put it on and no more sucking thumb!

    Thumb Sucking
    So far so good. I used this product on my 19 yr old who still sucks his thumb sometimes. It does a wonderful job. I am very happy I tried this product.

    It Really Works!!!
    I was skepital that this would really make my daughter stop sucking her thumb. She sucked on her thumb that night after I put it on and she nearly gagged at the taste. After sucking her thumb for 3+ years she stopped over night. This really works.

    A Miracle Cure!
    My 5 y.o. daughter has sucked her index finger ever since I can remember. Recently, it was just when she was tired or feeling shy/anxious. She was old enough to tell us that she needed help and she couldnt stop it. Based on reviews of this product that I saw on Amazon.com, I decided to give this a try.I put this on her finger one time, her finger went into her mouth one time, and she has NEVER sucked her finger since. I am still amazed when writing this because Im a rather cynical person...Ill believe it when I see it!Weve gone an entire month or more and it cured her of the habit!

    Stops Finger Sucking!
    This was recommended by our sons pediatric dentist to help him quit the habit of sucking on his fingers. It stays on for at least a 2-3 days without reapplying. It has made a big difference.
