Some natural tips to combat mosquito bites (and other stinging insects and plants)
Relieving mosquito bites with plants
When the mosquito (or flea) has bitten the body and the mosquito (or nettle) bite begins to itch, rub the mosquito bite immediately with fresh parsley and leave it in the open air for around 45 minutes.
Soothing a mosquito bite naturally
To soothe a mosquito bite naturally, take an onion, cut it in half and rub the stung area immediately after the bite. Leave it on the mosquito bite for a few minutes.
The itching should stop very quickly. Once the itching has subsided, apply Marseille soap and rinse thoroughly. The mosquito bite will be a thing of the past.
Soothing a mosquito bite on your child
To soothe a mosquito bite on your child almost spontaneously, simply chop up some fresh parsley and apply immediately.
Another trick that works very well on mosquito bites is blackcurrant leaves, crushed and applied directly to the skin.
Soothing an itchy nettle sting
To soothe nettle stings, rub a few sorrel or plantain leaves into your hand.
Then rub the leaves directly over the nettle sting.
Insect Sting Prevention Tips
1. Appropriate clothing: Wear long-sleeved clothing, pants and closed shoes when in areas with high insect populations. Light colors are less attractive to insects.
2. Insect repellents: Use insect repellents on exposed skin and clothing. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions when applying.
3. Avoid Peak Hours: Mosquitoes are most active at dawn and dusk. If possible, avoid going out during these hours to reduce the risk of bites.
4. Eliminate Stagnant Water Sources: Mosquitoes breed in stagnant water. Eliminate all sources of stagnant water around your home to reduce the mosquito population.
5. Use mosquito nets: If you sleep outdoors or in a non-air-conditioned area, use mosquito nets around your bed to protect against insect bites at night.
