| Just wanted to let you all know about a great Bee-Sting treatment called Sting-Kill that my friend showed me. It's great for camping trips since it's so portable (can fit in your backpack very easily, or even something smaller like a purse for us moms).
The treatment comes in these little glass tubes with cotton at one end, and you press the glass to break it, and squeaze the green liquid into the swab, and dab it onto the bite. It's really easy to use and work SO quickly.
It works great on other stings as well, not just bee stings. Anyways, Just thought I'd pass this discovery on, I found it really helpful. I think their site is www.sting-kill.com or something.
Hope this comes in handy!

| Don't know about that but I know of a cheap, homemade, easy to carry remedy. Put small amount of baking soda (a tsp. is good, though measuring isn't really necessary) in a small plastic envelope-can be carried in pockets. If stung by just about anything, add water to the envelope (spit is fine), make a paste, apply to sting, and pain is gone instantly. Works for bees, hornets, wasps. Kate |

Janette, I see you just registered and you are a business. That is against regulations at Garden Web.
oneproudmom, I suggest you take Benedryl It's good for allergies,bee and wasp stings,and snake bites. For snake bites you still get them to a doctor as soon as posible.
