The danger of mosquito bites is not only that small red pimples form. Much worse, they usually itch unbearably and are combed (especially by children), which can lead to infection in the wound. And this can cause quite serious consequences.

The most correct thing in this case is to use special medical means, but if you did not take them with you, then you can do with improvised means.

Aloe juice

If you have this houseplant growing on your window, then consider that you have a whole first aid kit. The healing properties of aloe have been known since ancient times. It is difficult to list all the diseases that are treated with this plant.

In our case, it is enough to simply break off the tip of the arrow-shaped leaf and lubricate the bite site with juice. This will not only soothe the itching, but also help to heal quickly.

Lemon juice

If you are allergic to mosquito bites, then the bite sites can increase to large sizes, causing swelling, throbbing pain, unbearable itching. Lemon juice can be used to relieve these symptoms.

Squeeze half a lemon, mix with a little cold water, moisten a tampon and periodically lubricate the bite site. It is better to keep this product in the refrigerator.

Vodka

Remember that it is always recommended to apply cold to the places of bites? It helps to reduce itching and relieve puffiness. And now add to this the antibacterial properties possessed by vodka. Get an excellent tool that you can use to lubricate bites.

Lavender oil

Lavender oil, in addition to its excellent smell, perfectly soothes the skin. Apply a few drops to the bite site, and then rub. Lavender is also a good repellent, which will help scare away bloodsuckers and avoid new attacks.

Toothpaste

It may seem silly, but toothpaste is great for mosquito bites. Lubricate the bite site with a small amount of paste, and it will relieve swelling, soothe itching, reduce redness.

Apple cider vinegar

Stopping itching is far from the only thing apple cider vinegar can do. He can also remove redness, and most importantly, he has a disinfecting effect. This is especially useful if your child has already managed to comb the pimple with dirty nails and has brought an infection. Make a mixture of vinegar and water and use for compresses.
