so right now i have about 32 bites in total all over my arms and legs. at first i thought it was mosquitos since i sleep with my windows open, but my friend at work scared me into thinking they were bed bugs (she kept pointing at some and going "breakfast, lunch, dinner"
 ). so i got super paranoid and was scared to go to bed. it was too late at night to buy 91 proof alcohol since the rite aid around here was closed.anyways, i woke up to intense itching and FOUND A MOSQUITO on the wall and killed it! so it's a mosquito! not bed bugs! right? RIGHT?! anyways, what do you guys do to get rid of the itch? any home remedies? i like using salt. |

If you have mosquito bites, calamine lotion is the best way to soothe the itch. You can also apply witch hazel. Another remedy is to mix some sugar with water... or a put a chilled, brewed tea bag on the bite. Tooth paste works too.
Apparently the Native Americans would use mud to soothe the itch.. so if you have nothing handy and you're outside you could always try that... but if you have a clay mask handy... might be worth a try. |
