10 Home Remedies for Bug Bites That Work Wonders

Banana peel

“This ancient Chinese remedy involves rubbing the inside of a banana peel on the affected bite area,” says Amy Lawhorne, Vice President for the pest control company Mosquito Squad. “This is known to moisturize and neutralize the itching, and the sugars in the banana will assist in soothing the redness.” Apply the inside of the peel onto the affected area and leave on for several minutes.

  1. I one time got a yellow jacket down my back inside my clothes. It stung me 7 times before I could get it out. My neighbor saw me and came out with a tube of toothpaste. She said she read once where a couple of construction workers disturbed a nest of yellow jackets and were repeated stung. All they had was toothpaste so they used it and it worked. She put it on my stings and the pain vanished almost immediately. Some years later I was working an emergency room when the police brought in a homeless woman because she had toothpaste smeared all over her face. The doctor was ready to agree just on that but I told him about the incident I’d had so he asked her why. She had windburn on her face (which we could see) and that was all she had to help the pain. I have also used baking soda paste on mosquito bites and my mom used oatmeal or baking soda paste when I had chicken pox. Worked great for both problems.
