Fresh Lemon To The Rescue!
Fresh Lemon To The Rescue!

This is probably the easiest way to stop a mosquito bite from itching...

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • fresh lemon
  • knife
  1. Step 1

    Select a fresh lemon that is nicely ripe and firm but not hard.

  2. Step 2

    Cut the lemon in half and remove any seeds that are on the surface of the lemon where you've cut it.

  3. Step 3

    Rub the lemon directly on your mosquito bite and feel the relief!

Tips & Warnings
  • I have used this method on myself and my children, who tend to scratch their bites regularly. We have not experienced any reactions and have been able to use the lemon soother as often as necessary.
  • If you are allergic to any kind of lemon or citrus products, this natural remedy should not be used.
