Re: Anyone got a home remedy for mosquito bites?
this is gonna sound weird...I always get welts, and if you put a tiny piece of scotch tape on the welts for a few hours then pull them off, the welts shrink!!
I think it pulls the mosquito poison out or something

Ammonia is what is in those "After-Bite" sticks you get in the stores.

Yup! and Windex has a higher concentration of it, so it's always worked better for me than the 'bug bite' stuff.

This truly works & also I like to make an "X" in the bite itself. For some reason, it stops the itch immediately

Windex, and if you eat a banana a day it repels them also. My SIL eats them everyday and I swear she hasnt gotten bit in years.
