Bitten Alive
Trying everything but still bitten alive any suggestions

Hi,
Is it mosquitoes you are being bitten by ? If so I can recommend the spray from Mercadona, it’s in an orange plastic bottle, approximately €3,00 excellent. It’s with all the other bug spray’s etc.

Its with all the bug / ant / fly killers near the checkouts & near the toilets.
Antihistamine tablets ( for hay fever ) will relieve the itchiness.
Or a product a cream called Anthisan, I don't know if this is available in Spain though.
If you are getting bitten through the night use the plug in mosquito killers.
I have them in every room & turn them on about 5pm & off when I wake up.

I've tried everything too, but once bitten, I totally recommend clear hand sanitizer on the bites, it immediately relieves the itch and cools the bite, also reduces the swelling, I tried just the alcohol, but it seems that the gel in the hand sanitizer keeps it on better, so have a try, it worked for me, x

After trying everything there's only one thing that helps (after the bite) is a damp cloth with coarse salt, rub as hard as you can. No more itching, pain, swelling...
Hi,
Use the back of a very hot teaspoon, it works a treat on the bites, mosquitoes 🦟
