Please help me. I've just got back from my holidays and I was severely bitten many times by bloody (ha!) mosquitos and they itch like hell. What can I do to stop the scratching? It's driving me mad aaaAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!! Cheers Reachy
Bite YOU WERE NOT BITTEN YOU HAD A TRANSFUISION BEST THING TO DO IS 1 QUART OF JACK DANIALS WHISKEY AND HOT CLOROX BATH THE JACK DANIALS IS FOR THE SMELL OF THE BLEACH
If you lived in the US I would say go to the pharmacy and buy some "Chiggar Rid"...it works on mosquito bites as well. I don't know if that's available in the UK...so Calomine Lotion or Cortaid anti-itch ointment should work. You could just try rubbing alcohol--it will sting--but it would probably stop the itching.
Dang little critters those mesquito's. Be glad it was just your arm. Look what happened to pappy - dun got eatten alive! Just remember if the swelling gets to these proportions - take photos!
Mosquito Bites Pevention is always better than the cure. You should have rubbed in a sugar solution over your entire body before you went away. It would not have stopped the mosquitos biting you but would sure as hell have rotted their teeth. Andy :laugh:
I was just wondering where Reachy had got off to. Thought perhaps someone had offended him and departed for less contentious posting.
If it is chiggers and not mosquitos then finger nail polish will work. It smothers them. Try to find clear finger nail polish though. Jan:laugh:
