on 6/7/2007 Take eye reddness remedies Visine or Murine and squirt a touch on the infected area, the swelling and itching are gone in minutes!
on 11/22/2005 I learned this on t.v. one day, and it really works!Put deoderant/antiperspirant to stop the itching of a bug bite. Something inside the deoderant stick makes the bites stop itching IMMEDIATELY!
on 11/22/2005 We use a paste of meat tenderizer and vinegar. Rub on the really nasty bites and stings. A second application may be necessary after a few minutes. The swelling and itching disappear!
on 11/22/2005 Mix meat tenderizer with water to make a paste, and put it on any misquito bites that have swelled. It stops the itch & takes the swelling down. It worked for my kids!
on 11/22/2005 I have found that putting a little dab of toothpaste (preferably paste) on a mosquito bite works wonders! It immediately stops the itch and the swelling starts to go down. Just don't forget to wash it off the next morning!!
on 11/22/2005 I take any oral antihistimine (normal dosage)by mouth of course. Then wash area bitten area with very warm water and soap and apply rubbing alcohol to bitten area. If itching returns, rub with more alcohol on a cotton ball. Bite disappears in few hours.
on 11/22/2005 Rub a dab of mint toothpaste (not the gel kind) on an insect bite, and the itching disappears! This works for me, and it might work for you.
on 11/22/2005 Get any kind of solid or roll on deodorant and rub on bite . It will help with itch and swelling. Don't know why but do it all the time.
