You should use DEET to avoid getting bit, but if you are bit, this is how to make the itching stop.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • ice
  • paper towel or small cloth
  1. Step 1

    Get a few ice cubes.

  2. Step 2

    Use a washcloth or other cloth to hold the ice.

  3. Step 3

    Hold ice against the bite until it is numb (just a few minutes).

  4. Step 4

    Move the ice to the next bite.

  5. Step 5

    Repeat icing the bites, just to be sure. Mine go away and never come back!

Tips & Warnings
  • Don't hold the ice on your skin long enough to cause frost bite, just until the skin is numbed.
