8Stop Itchy Stings or Bites
Apple cider vinegar has long been used as a natural treatment for many medical conditions, from blood glucose issues to infections. So if you are dealing with an itchy mosquito bite, jellyfish sting, or poison ivy, just apply a few drops of diluted vinegar on the affected areas with a cotton ball to reduce burning or stinging sensations and irritation. Also, this liquid can serve as a powerful disinfectant in case you have scratched too much.
If you want more relief, soak a washcloth in vinegar and cold water, then apply it to the bites. When you are suffering from many bites at the same time, dilute two vinegar cups in a bath and soak for 30 minutes. However, keep in mind that a hot bath would worsen your itching. If you feel irritation on the skin, stop the treatment immediately. [8]
