Fire Ant Bites

Lets face it... They hurt !
 A cold compress applied right away will reduce inflammation and pain.

 Aloe applied to fire ant stings can relieve the itching and pain. 

Both vinegar and a baking soda paste have been recommended as natural remedies to soothe the pain from fire ant bites, though in the end one of these could be a better treatment than the other for you, I haven't played in enough ants to try a multitude of remedies (thank goodness)

Don't forget to keep the bites clean especially if the blisters break open.






My poor husband! :( but he was such a trooper telling me what helped and what didn't as we searched remedies.

I'd love to hear natural remedies that you've tried ... For bites and stings, or anything ..... ;)

  1. Fire ant is one of the most dangerous ant. Their venom produce dangerous allergic effect on skin. I hate them very much. They are really very dangerous. Actually we need to know how to kill fire ants. Proper knowledge and expertise can remove them from our house.
