Question

Is there a better way to get rid of the itch of a mosquito bite without scratching?

Answer 1

"X" it out

Answer 2

Use " After Bite", get it at Walgreens or put some whiskey, gin, vodka on it. While you're at it, make yourself a cocktail and after a few drinks you wont care if it itches.

Answer 3

all these will sting abit, but

i do it when don't have my "INSECT BITE RELIEF" med.

bought at Walgreens.......

rub lemon juice right on it,

cig ashes,

grammas remedy good ol rubbing alcohol

Answer 4

Instead of scratching, which just spreads the histamine in the bite, try slapping it. I used to do that with new tattoos and it worked. Also try a cortosone cream like Cortaid to relieve the symptoms.

Answer 5

Studies show that the "X" method doesn't really work.  Just use any a spray or ointment.  Try a paste made from oatmeal.

Answer 6

The "X" c**p is simply that c**p! It doesn't work, it is all in your head. Put a little cortizone cream or anti itch cream on it and it won't itch and go away.
