It was fine until yesterday when it puffed up and started itching. Today it's just a big red lump and a little red lump. But..... the itching...Just. Won't. Stop. Benadryl, hydrocortisone, anti-itch cream....I even stooped to trying jock itch relief. I'm about ready to amputate. A few months ago someone posted a remedy that involved tea or tea bags? Does anyone remember what it was and if it works for itching? Please. Help. This won't help you now, but for future reference, as soon as you are bit, dab the area with bleach. I don't know how or why, but it works. Alternatively, I usually carry one of those "After Bite" pens (you can get them at Walmart) and they also seem to work. The main ingredient in those is ammonia and it does smell. 3

I swear insects see me and think 'all you can eat buffet' I've had a pesky gnat in my office the past week and it loves dive-bombing my head. Hope everyone has a good day! 3

I think I read somewhere that fire ants have really nasty bites. Still a little itchy, but much more manageable now. For such tiny little creatures they sure do pack a punch! You definitely know when you've been stung. Have a good day everyone! 5 1
Solus Magus Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 I remembered hiking on a mountain before and it rained really hard. Because it was muddy, my shoe was torn off and I had to walk through a good portion of the hike bare-footed. It was all going well when we had to walk over an anthill and I didn't have any shoes. Plus it was kinda on a ledge, so if I skipped over it, I might fall off to the side of the mountain. It was that or get bit by a swarm of huge ants because I had to walk over them. Thankfully, there was a huge banana tree beside it and I cut off one of the branches, and laid it above the swarm of ants then crossed as soon as I can. Otherwise, I may still be stuck on that mountain trail. Ant bites are really badddd. 5

I've realized that the positives now outweighs the negatives. It feels good. I have a sticky note pad on my desk that I have started writing positive affirmations on and I've added the two from @Mikiesboy and @rickproehl. Thanks for those! Happy Friday! 5
