Bug Bites
You’re in your garden, happily tending to your tomatoes, when out of the blue—ZAP!! You’ve gotten a nasty bee sting. Here’s a few quick ways to soothe the sting with a minimum of pain, swelling, or itching.
- Pour a little baking soda in your hand and add enough water to make a paste. Smear it on the sting and leave it there for at least 20 minutes.
- Mix a teaspoon of meat tenderizer with a few drops of water to make a paste, then apply it to the sting for no more than 30 minutes.
- What if you’re stung out in the woods—not close to the kitchen where you can reach for these handy homemade remedies? No problem—just apply a dab of mud to the spot. Soil (with a little saliva added) almost always contains a little clay, which will help draw out the venom and reduce pain and swelling.
