Here are two little-known ways to stop bug bites from itching:
1. Banana Peel
Rubbing the inside of a banana peel on the bug bite can help reduce itching and inflammation. The peel contains natural oils and compounds that have anti-inflammatory properties.
2. Toothpaste
Applying a small amount of toothpaste (preferably one with peppermint or baking soda) to the bite can help soothe the itch. The menthol in the toothpaste provides a cooling sensation, while baking soda can help reduce swelling and irritation.
Both of these methods are easy to try at home and can provide relief from the discomfort of bug bites.
