Buy an aspivenin pump. We use this as does the US marines and many rainforest explorers. It is a fab piece of equipment and it does work.

I use a lemon based body spray from Lush (Dad’s Garden Lemon Tree) as last year i was getting hunted down by horse flies on a daily basis. And the bites swell and hurt and have left a scar or two on me, so had to take action.

This year i got the body spray and have only been bitten once on the leg on a day i forgot to put it on

You haven’t got fleas have you? (Don’t have to be a pet owner, can just jump on you while out and about) they mainly bite legs and ankles and it drives you mental...

We have had aloe Vera plants at home for years very soothing on all skin problems and easy to look after

I use Solu Cortef Injections its a Hydrocortisone Sodium Succinate,

Always used it when I was working in North African, it helps reduce the itching and inflammation greatly, last around 4 weeks.

Don't think you can get it in the Uk though without a Doctors prescription.

I got bitten like crazy a couple of months ago when clearing the garden - Boots pharmacist recommended their own brand anti-histamine cream and it worked a treat
