Mom always had us put mud on a bee sting after we got the stinger out. Guess that comes from raising all boys

This is what works best for me. I put some Benadryl on a bad bite, a little after 4:00am today, that was waking me up. I got a lot of deer fly bites on Monday, that were not that bad. Whatever caused this bite was worse. It made a very large hard lump under my skin. The Benadryl knocked it out quick. Keith

For skeeter bites, my mom always said to press an "X" on it with a fingernail, stick or ?. Worked every time.

I make salves from different plants infused in olive oil and thickened with beeswax. For bug bites, it's usually cottonwood buds. Jewel weed works great on poison ivy, but, ok on bug bites, too.
