Don’t let the bugs bite
Throughout the summer, most of us suffer from mosquito and bug bites – some people are more sensitive than others, but no one is immune to those itching bites. Instead of scratching away, you can use Vaseline to reduce the itching sensation of bug bites – just apply a small amount of Vaseline to the spot and take your mind off it. Aloe Vera can help here as well.
Placing the jar of Vaseline in the freezer before applying it on your skin would have the same cooling, soothing effect as Aloe Vera. Besides soothing itchiness, Vaseline can also be used to keep bugs away from your garden: mix Vaseline with some salt and spread the blend around your flowerpots – this should keep the bugs away, and your plants happy.
