Ouch!
Mosquito bites become annoying, irratable and become big red welts if not treated. These steps will help you get rid of mosquito bites, or at least tone down the swelling.
Steps
- Peel a banana.
- Use the inside of part of the skin to rub the bite.
- Wait. Almost immediately itching will stop, and you will most likely forget you had the bite. After 5-15 minutes swelling decreases dramatically. After 30-60mins your skin should be returning to normal.
- Wash the affected area after 90 mins.
Warnings
-
- Don't wipe the affected area of banana slime for as long as possible! Wiping the slime from your skin too early will alter or stop the reversing effects!
- DON'T SCRATCH IT! It will get bigger and produce more poison to the skin.
