Alive yourself with oats
It is one of the most effective remedies against inflammations of the skin, including the bites of mosquitoes and other insects.
Apply cold
Fresh water and ice reduce inflammation and produce an analgesic effect. You can apply a compress dampened in water with ice or a cold pack.
Aloe vera
Apply the gel, let it dry on top of the bite and reapply it if necessary.
Sodium bicarbonate
Make a paste of baking soda with a little water and apply it on the bite. Let it act for about 10 minutes and wash.
Basil
It is said that the basil plant scares away mosquitoes and is true because its leaves have at least 4 compounds that are repellent: estragole, citronellol, limonene and trans-nerolidol.
Thyme prevents infections
Thyme possesses antibacterial properties and that is why it is used to prevent the complications of colds.
Melissa relieves you
Melissa is used to treat digestive inflammations or to reduce anxiety, among other indications.
For mosquito bites, you can apply well chopped leaves on the bite, or you can buy melissa essential oil and apply it directly.
