What's a home remedy for bug bites?

What’s the best home remedy for bug bites?

Answer #1

well usually i just lick my finger and put it on my bug bite and it stops it from itching. or you take your nail and you make an X on it. and it stops it too.

yeah it sounds kinda gross. but it works.

Answer #2

There are a lot of OTC creams available and usually do the job. There’s one, a diphenhydramine cream, or better known as Benadryl. It’ll help relieve the itching which may also increase the time for healing with better results. I have no idea what your health history is so talk with your doctor FIRST before you use any OTC products–just because they don’t require a prescription doesn’t mean they’re harmless. Take care. :-) -S
