10 Home Remedies For Mosquito Bites
Mosquito Bite Home Remedy #5: Lemon and Lime
Lemons and limes are often used in medicines, often for their high vitamin C content. In addition, the juice of a lemon can also help to relieve the itchiness from mosquito bites, while the juice also has antiseptic properties that can help reduce the chances of an infection taking hold.
If you have already scratched the bite and opened the skin, applying lemon and lime juice can sting quite a bit. It is more effective if you can apply the juice before the bite has been scratched. Not only will doing so prevent the sting, it will also be more effective at relieving the itch.
