Bzzzzzzz

  • Mood:
  • Weather:

Summer is always that time with a lot more crawling, buzzing, tickling and stinging little creatures.  Whoaaaa! I hate them. They just give me the creeps. I could manage to keep most of them out so far and I can sort of live with buzzing flies in my house, although they can be really annoying, but I just have enough of the attacking mosquitoes every night. There really aren't that many mosquitoes here, but they seem to know a way to always find me. It's not such a big surprise though, I don't have an insect screen for my windows, so it's pretty easy for them to come in, and once they are inside, they only find me to sting.  Anyway, I just hate the itching spots they leave behind. I can't help but scratch until it bursts, with all it's consequences, of course.  It really looks bad. Thank goodness they only attacked my arms and legs so far... as far as I know.

I should do something about it. I don't seem to be fast enough to smack them, though.  We have those things here you can put in an electricity outlet. It spreads a smell mosquitoes can't stand or something, but I heard it's not really good for our own health and could even be poisonous, so I haven't bought that. It costs a lot of money anyway. But I don't know what else to do, so I might consider it nevertheless. 

Any good advice is welcome though. And what do you do to relieve the itching when you have a bite?

Els, I LOVE your plaid journal.

To relieve itching, try Calamine lotion or Caladryl lotion or cream.

Hi Els! An old remedy my grandma uses for mosquito bites is to mix some baking soda with a little bit of water to make a paste, and then put that over the bite. It actually does work, and I use it when I get bad mosquito bites.

I can't think of any better solutions than the ones you have been given!

My dog, Duchess, pushed out the bottom part of my storm door to make a doggie door, so now when my inside door is open the outdoor bugs use her doggie door to get in! I've got to block that off, LOL!

I'm afraid I can't help you with anything for the bug bites. I know you shouldn't do it, but I can't help scratching them when I get them! Nothing I try seems to work and eventually they do go away, but they are most annoying.

Your new look is awesome, Els. Really like the plaid background!

Great new look for your journal, Els!
My mom taught me about the baking soda paste too. We even put it on bee stings.
