They obviously have never tried an incredible product that we have using successfully for many years >> " Chiggerex Plus " from Scherer Labs .. You just would not believe how excellent this product is for insect bites of all kinds .. works sooo fast too !

When I had a lawn service, I occasionally got wasp stings. I kept a can of chewing tobacco around for this contingency. I put a pinch of tobacco and enough spit to make a paste, then bandaged it to the sting site. This homemade remedy, applied immediately after the sting, reduced the severity of my reaction at least 50%. Swelling was reduced 80% and the itching was greatly relieved over the entire week that it took for the reaction to completely subside. Tobacco and spit. Who would have guessed?
