Prevent and treat bug bites
There's a reason that insects are called pests.But despite the itchy ,red bumps they leave behind,insects bites are usually mild and the itching goes away in a day or so,specially the bug bites come from mosquitoes or biting flies.On the other hand(legs,arm or toe.....),bees,wasps and fire ants tend to cause more irritation and can some time lead to bigger problems.
Bug bites can be avoided,or at least minimized,by following a few precautions for common out door pests.The first line to defense against to plan ahead-always evaluate your surroundings and prepare accordingly if you anticipate large numbers of insects.Its always a good idea to apply insect repellent with DEET or PICARIDIN.If you r concern about using chemicals, particularly around children,you might want to try lemon eucalyptus and citronella oils, which also work.
