INSECT BITES

Insect bites produce swelling, irritation and in some occasions an infection or poisoning as in the case of those of scorpions, tarantulas, etc.

Suggested treatment.

 When it is a minor bite such as from an ant, a mosquito, a bee or a wasp, the best remedy is to:

Squeeze the area a little in order to get out as much as possible of the substance injected by the insect.

Apply a little bit of ice to reduce inflammation,

Soak a cotton ball in aloe vera activator extract, or a mixture of this product with aloe vera gelatin. Or apply the first aid mixture as this will have a triple effect, reducing inflammation, disinfecting, and healing.

If you don’t have any of these products on hand, you can use propolis cream or a lip ointment of aloe vera and jojoba.

Since the the poison  produces allergic reaction it is recommended to drink aloe vera juice and lots of water.

Apply a clay or mud pack on the bite. Better yet, if you have a facial mask with kaolin, it will absorb the poison while drying.
