    After an insect or mosquito bite, the skin is so itchy that you sometimes feel uncomfortable. So to relieve this itch, our grannies had several solutions for the cause. In this article, we will talk about some of them!

    Parsley

    For mosquito bites, use parsley. It is a very effective remedy. To do this, crush the parsley leaves to extract the green liquid. Gently rub the infected part. You can also leave under a bandage if you finish. Then let it rest for a while and remove the bandage. You will see that the itching will stop and everything will come back to normal.

    Onion

    In addition to being a vegetable and a cooking condiment, the onion is also an ingredient for relieving insect bites. If you have just been bitten by an insect, do not drag your feet to ease the pain. Think directly to the onion. Apply an onion cut in half to your bite. This miracle ingredient relieves your pain in a fraction of the time. As well as providing relief, it disinfects your skin from the venom left by the insect.

    A trio against all kinds of stings

    Vinegar, bicarbonate and lemon. If you have any of these three ingredients, no more worries about insect bites, no matter the insect. Vinegar, whether white or cider, has proven itself time and time again when it comes to insect bites. This is due to its high concentration of acetic acid. To use, soak a compress or cotton ball in pure vinegar and apply to the affected area. You can use the same method of application with lemon. Or if you want you can put a slice of chopped lemon directly on the sting. With bicarbonate, you just need to mix it with water to make a paste. Now use this paste on the pricked area.

    This trio not only prevents the itch, but also the inflammatory reaction and pain. So use these methods in case of insect bites to get satisfaction.
