A Flower Remedy To Relieve Itchy Insect Bites

For as long as I can remember I’ve been an “all you can eat” buffet for blood-sucking insects, reacting with painful swelling and madness-inducing itching.


I wondered if the flower remedies could help to relieve itchy insect bites so I experimented by applying Crab Apple directly to the bites. To my delight the itching was relieved in a couple of seconds.


How to use Crab Apple flower remedy on insect bites

Simply put two drops of the tincture in the palm of your freshly-washed hand and used a clean finger to dab it on the bite. Let it air-dry and repeat if the itchiness returns.


Why this works

Crab Apple is for when you are feeling dirty or soiled or feeling infected. It is a cleansing remedy for both mind and body and promotes self-healing. It can be used diluted in water as a lotion for spots and acne as well.


If you try this for yourself, I'd love to know if it works for you too. You can contact me here
