My 5-year old daughter enjoyed an outdoor symphony performance on the grass the other night and came home with several enormous itchy welts on her ankles. Luckily, I know several remedies to help ease the itching and calm the inflammation that I feel safe using on such a sensitive little one.
1. First, I gave her some homeopathic Apis Mellifica under
neath her tongue. This is the same homeopathic remedy I suggested using when a friend was stung by a bee recently. I recommended she take a dose immediately, then a second thirty minutes later, and if needed for discomfort, a third two hours after that. My daughter’s fierce mosquito or spider bites required one pastille of Apis that night and a second the next morning before breakfast.
2. For topical relief, I rubbed in some homopathic Florasone, a remedy helpful for skin irritatio
ns in general. If I could have located it in my house, I would have applied some homeopathic SssstingStop gel, but the Florasone worked quite well, as it usually does.
3. For bee stings and spider bites, it’s helpful to place a drying masque over the area to draw out the poison. Mud works great and is easily available, as does tooth paste (not gel). A clay facial masque will do the trick, too.
4. Finally, disolving about 2 cups of Epsom Salts into a warm bath for a soak will help reduce swelling and relieve itching.

Several spiders can protect your home from pesky invaders. Cellar spiders-the web-spinning species most common in homes-have been known to prey on black widow spiders. Some, like the spiny orb weaver and house spiders, can hunt crickets and small flying insects. Wolf spiders can help rid lawns and gardens of common pests. Even the brown recluse-the most dangerous spider to humans-can assist by eating cockroaches, silverfish and other soft-bodied insects.*

Usually I do not read article on blogs, but I wish to say that this write-up very forced me to take a look at and
do it! Your writing style has been amazed me. Thank you, very nice article.
I have been browsing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It is pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if
all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did,
the web will be much more useful than ever before.
If we are talking about common spider bites, it would be not to serious and just a dab of Calamine would solve the problem. `

Spider bites can be quite deadly specially if it comes from a poisonous spider specie. I always take spider bites seriously and have a doctor take a look at the bite site for proper evaluation. ;”.`.

Aloe Vera applied to the bite is very soothing and anti-inflammatory, reducing the urge to SCRATCH and risk infection. It’s also antibacterial and dries to form a protective barrier, speeding the healing process. Store it in the fridge and it feels even better.
