My old advice, and what we used to do, was put nail polish over them.
It always seemed to work, when I was a kid.
That being said, Google says nail polish doesn't work, so maybe it was a placebo?
Taking a small dose of diphenhydramine (Benadryl) might work.
But I find that itchiness is transferable, if you write a good enough poem about getting bitten by bugs, and read it to someone else, they will start scratching, and suddenly, you will be at peace.
... if you write a good enough poem
Yes but what rhymes with chigger? But I came here to say nail polish.
Benadryl - two tabs for adult dose knocks me out, but half the dose at twice the frequency keeps me ambulatory. 2 every 4-6 hours: nap time 1 every 2-3 hours: works pretty well
I read a story recently here on Poal I believe about a correlation between benadryl and Alzheimer, you should look into that.
Have you ever read about Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) abuse?
Recently saw something but don't recall. It works. I use it sparingly. It is an old drug - so I like that.
Was that with Tylenol in the, um, antibiotic resistance maybe? Link that shit.
