Mosquito Bite Relief

Recipe #380323 | 1 min | 1 min prep | add private note

I don't remember which magazine I read this in (I was at the doctor's office) but we just tried it. The mosquitoes are swarming right now and my kids had tons of bites. They were in total desperation with the itching. I put a little on each bug bite, and they got relief almost instantly! Very easy.

1 application (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 3 aspirin, tablets
  • water (a few drops)

Directions

  1. 1
    Crush the aspirin tablets to a fine powder between 2 spoons (use as many as you think you need).
  2. 2
    Add a few drops of water and mix to make a paste, thin enough to wipe on.
  3. 3
    Apply to bug bites and get relief! The magazine says to do it 2 times a day.
