What will take the itch out of gnat bites PLEASE!!!!!!!!?

Question

Gnat bites seem to be bigger and last longer than usual these days and we have been plagued by them! We would welcome any advice as to how to prevent them but most of all, how to alleviate the irritation! Many thanks.

Answer 1

Find another little gnat that will put it's tube into the same bite hole. Tell it something really rude so it gasps in (the way you do when shocked) and it will suck out the poison!

Answer 2

Do Gnat Bites Itch

Answer 3

First, never go into the sort of territory that gets you bites, without insect repellent.

Second, when you have ignored the first bit, is to either use ammonia, which is quite good, or, if you can get the affected bit under the hot tap, then run water as hot as you can stand, for as long as you can stand it, on the bitten area. This works really well. Another source of some relief is to get a 'clicker', which is a piezo-electric device, that gives you a mild electric shock. You click the bite a few times, and the itching reduces.

Then refer to the first point again, and take notice this time.

Answer 4

I would reccomend using meat tenderizer. This sounds whacky, but don't laugh if you haven't tried it. For years my family went to the beach for vacation. Unfortunately the tide always left the gruesome jellyfish strewn about. After getting stung by one of these, not once but a couple of times, I learned the trick of applying meat tenderizer. If it will take the pain out of a jellyfish sting, I am sure it will take the itch out of a gnat bite. If you use a liquid tenderizer, dab it on the sting...If it is in powder form, moisten the sting with clean water and lightly sprinkle the bite with the tenderizer. But don't scratch untill it bleeds. Any nurse will tell you that your skin is your first line of defense against infection. If your skin is broken, it's a good way to allow infection to enter. As for preventing them, use Avon's "skin so soft" It's works on mosquitoes, why not for gnats? Hope this works for you. TXnewSW

Answer 5

First of all i had NO idea that gnats could bite. (lol i have a brain) Arent they those little annoying specs that wont leave you alone? (and wake me up at night)

Well anyway, i would suggest bathing in ice cold water (if the bites are everywhere) b/c whenever i get bites i put ice on it and it helps relive it.

and of course anti itch cream =]

Answer 6

You need to wash them with soap and water first. Depending what you have on hand, calamine lotion, deodorant, or toothpaste may help.

There are other itch remedies like Gold Bond Medicated cream or Cortisone creams available in the allergy section of your local store.

Taking one Benadryl tablet will help calm the itching from the inside. They make you sleepy, so only take two if you are going to bed.

Answer 7

Use any anti-itch creme. Available from any dollar store or drug store.
To prevent bites, use Avon Skin-So-Soft over your entire body. Works for everyone. Something in it that repels little critters including fleas, mosquitos, gnats, etc

Answer 8

Hey there,
A good natural remedy for premature ejaculation can be found on this site http://www.goobypls.com/r/rd.asp?gid=565

Rapid climax, early ejaculation, premature ejaculation, whatever you call it, it’s a problem plaguing hundreds of men, although many might not admit it. That’s because ever since ancient times sexual performance has been linked to a man’s virility and masculinity. It’s easy to understand then why a man might want to avoid talking about his ejaculation concerns, either with his partner or anyone else. However, premature ejaculation is actually the most common sexual problem faced by men. Whether it is a persistent concern, or just an occasional incident, most men have reported having some trouble with controlling their ejaculation at one point or another.

Answer 9

Try rubbing the bite mark first, squeeze it a little to get rid of the toxin then tap white vinegar on it with a little cotton. White vinegar will neutralize its chemical composition the same way it would with a jelly fish sting and many other insect bites. It really works.
