Bee stings can be treated with ordinary mud. If mud is not available, grab a handful of soil and spit in it, then smear it onto the bee sting. Trust me, it works. A wet aspirin, or St. John s wort also can be placed over the bee sting. If a bee sting swells more than to the size of a dime, turns red around the sting area, or difficulty in swallowing or breathing occurs, contact a physician immediately.
Bee stings can be deadly.
Insect bites can be neutralized with meat tenderizer. Avon s product, Skin So Soft, also seems to work as a deterrent for mosquitoes. It smells nice, to boot. Acne, which often strikes during the teen-age years, can be lessened with the use of oranges and lemons. Wash face, then run a piece of fresh citric fruit over the entire surface.
