As a safety precaution we always carry rubbing alcohol for cleaning
the affected area and use calamine lotion to relieve the insect bites.
So far we have not use any for years. FWIW



Try some "Afterbite", strong ammonia in a little stick tube applicator.
One touch and the sting even from a wasp goes away in seconds as the
ammonia just sucks the poison out.

Thanks, "Afterbite" is very good for bees. It is also part of our first aid
kit.

We have two sets of screens. No-seeum for certain anchorage, but that
fine a weave dang near stops airflow. Our "mosquito" set lets a bit more
air through, though sometimes we get no-seeums before we switch over.
