Bug Bite Relief
from
Bug Bite in Belize
Visiting the Tropics often includes bug bites. The locals, while still getting bit, have developed an immunity to the bugs. You, a visitor, have no immunity to the bug bites.
These mixtures help repel and reduce the frequency of insect bites and also helps sooth and relieve the itching and swelling caused by those bug bites.
Peppermint oil creates a cooling sensation on the skin reducing burning, stinging, and itching sensations caused by bites or stings.
Rosemary oil is another choice for bug bite pain relief, it can help prevent infection and has potent anti-inflammatory qualities.
Lavender oil is a popular essential oil and a favorite for treating bug bites. It has soothing properties and it can also be pain-relieving.
Tea Tree oil is amazing at preventing bug bites as well as treating bites that may have slipped in.
Lemongrass oil’s antimicrobial effects can help prevent the spread of some insect-borne diseases. A compound found in lemongrass oil might have anti-inflammatory properties. By reducing inflammation, lemongrass oil may make bites less painful.
Neem oil is a naturally occurring pesticide and repellent found in seeds from the Neem tree.

Do Not Spray Directly to your Face.

To relieve itching of a single bug bite a little Peppermint Oil on a Cotton Swab applied directly to the bite will help reduce the itch and swelling. You can also apply a diluted mixer by putting a few drops of Peppermint Essential Oil in a teaspoon of water and dipping the Cotton Swab in that.
The Essential Oils, Neem Oil and Witch Hazel are all natural.
Wash your fingers before you eat finger food, however, should you forget, these natural oils are not toxic.
I visit Belize once or twice a year and stay for more than 30 days on each visit. I stay in Placencia Village on the peninsula. The noseeums, doctor flies and other bugs are a common nuisance. This spray has helped me fend off many bugs and relieve the itching of existing bites. During high bite times, sunrise, sunset and after it rains, locals have also used my spray in preference to chemical sprays.
