4. Had all your shots? Malaria, dengue virus? Avian flu, monkeypox....
...DISCO FEVER?

You don't hear so much about Disco Fever lately, but that outbreak in the late 70s was just SCARY!

11. Not at all. It will at least stop the itching. For future reference....
...if you spray it on a bite immediately, many times the bite will completely go away by the next day. Good stuff for this time of year. I live in Tennessee, so I sympathize.

14. put an ice cube on it and freeze it right away
someone told me it would take the itch away

it appeared to help each time i did it

(maybe it was because i get so preoccupied with the sensation of cold, of melting ice water running down my skin, getting my sleeve wet, my fingers freezing up as i hold the ice cube--maybe it works because it distracts the hell out of you)
