    Default spider+ mosqito bites!!!!!!!

    I have alot of bites (about 15) from swimming at night in my pool I evan had bug repellent on(it said waterproof - yeah right )! I work tonight and was wondering if anyone has any ideas on making them less visible, or go away faster .

    Don't scratch...what ever you do don't scratch.Clean the bites with witch hazel.Powder over them,and leave them alone.The lighting should cover them if you aren't scratching.

    Try some tea tree oil, or campo-phenique. I also dab w/alcohol.

    Try Bactine, it shrinks the bump and makes the swelling go away.
    Yeah, garlic has its fans. Lemon eucalyptus oil in a spray works too. Off! makes a plant-based lotion called "Botanicals." I use that.
    Wear cotton leggings or thermals to bed if you scratch in your sleep.

    Two ideas I've used:
    1. "Purification" by Young Living. It's oils that repel/heal bites, stings.
    2. "Sting Gel" by Nelson Homeopathic. Cools and heals.
    For both, a little goes a LOOONG way.

    Hope that helps.

    I find that exfoliating insect bites will make them feel better and make them less noticeable.

    Bactine will help to momentarily ease itching and bring down the swelling some.
    ...and the day came, when the risk it took to remain closed in a bud became worse than the risk it took to blossom.

    This is going to sound odd. But an old remedy that my mother used for any bites that itch was: A dap of Red pepper on each bite! Also at night when sleeping she would say put on some Camphor with a tad of tooth paste over it.

    Not sure if it works. I don't scratch. But the red pepper is to help it pull out any venom if it's a spider bite, and heat up the area so it does not itch.

    Hmm, sounds odd i know...But it's cheap, and ya never know.

    I think some really are spider bites cuz I've been seeing quite a few of those big yellow ones around! I love tarantulas (I have one ) but really despise those yellow spiders! The bites hurt so much . I've been getting new bites everyday! I have off and have been using it but I think I need raid (for spiders) . Everyone who comes over smokes (children in the house )outside so the opening and closing of the door may be contributing to the problem. No one else has(as many ) bites like mine though- odd.Guys say its my sweet taste / smell.Yeah right!

    In my experiences Pamela the odd and older ways are the ones that work the best .

    Right after I'm bit, before Iscatch I put Neosporin on th ebite.. It seems to work best before I've scratched at all " so that the venom isn't realeased?"
