My aunt made this remedy a few summers ago because she works on a farm and gets bit up alot. It includes vinegar and bugspray. It doesn't smell the greatest but it's gaurenteed to keep the bugs away.

Today I was at my doctors office and I was looking at this bulletin board with a bunch of articles on it. Their was one article about how a University conducted an experiment and tested bug sprays. It said REPEL bug spray was the best out of all of them! Good Luck with those bug bites! -- Isabel

Hi there,
Ive heard that eating marmite stops them biting, basically anything with Zinc in will stop them as they dont like the taste!

There are lot of good home remedies which you can do easily at home. You have to first start using the sunscream which is very effective. You can use Garnier or UVAVO sunscream. secondly you have start use tomato pulp and lime juice and spread over the face. Then after that use ice cubes for 10 minutes in your face and then use good face pack. Take 1/2 tspn besan,pinch haldi,pinch baking soda,1/2 curd,rose water and apply on your face if possible kindly put honey also. then keep it for 15 minutes then wash your face with cold water. After that put astraingent or curd on your face dry for 5 minutes then wash then see your face after that.

mine does too. we both have sensitive skin. firstly, DON'T SCRATCH. i know it may be tempting, but don't do it otherwise you'll end up with terrible scarring. don't use cortaid either becasue it can hyperpigment your skin. don't overuse repellent because it can be harmful. if the urge to scratch becomes too overpowering, either put on some clear nailpolish (when it dries your bit won't itch anymore) or use your nail and press into the bite for 10 seconds and it should stop itching.

Well, most any mosquito repelent works, but if you still get the bites, calamine lotion always seems to stopthe itching.

Skin So Soft by AVON has been known for years to keep the mosquitos away. No one knows why it works but it does. I keep some in my cabinet. I am not crazy about the smell. Very flowery, but it works. It is not expensive, and it has no chemicals. DEET is a known mosquito repelant, but to much is dangerous, and I wouldn't recommend it.

BenadRyl does wondeRs foR me; I used to get 90 at a time... Goodluck!

Take baking soda and vinegar. Put it all over you. Its not the best smelling of remedies. But it works quite well.

muskol seems to work well. alos misqutos are attracted to bananas so don't eat any of those before going out into places where there are lots of misquitos.
