How Do You Treat Gnat Bites?

I’m not the one they go for, obviously dislike my perfume but germolene helps . I’m definitely one to scratch so try to put cream on to prevent scratching when I do go the odd one .

Hydrocortisone 1% will relieve the Itching. I always carry this In my medicine cabinet just Incase. Same applies to Mosquito bites, etc.

Anti histamine tablets from the pound shop.

Anthasan (if that’s how it’s spelt) the best over the counter bite and sting cream! Take that from someone who’s blood is a gnats favourite meal

I must say I’m very lucky, if that’s the word and never get bitten. For some reason they don’t like me. But when I was in Kenya they absolutely loved my pale friend, so I took her on holiday every time as my repellent!

I have been eaten alive this last couple of weeks, think this year is the worst for the little terrors. Oh I can't stop myself from scratching it's terrible. I find the old remedies are the best I use calamine lotion it cools and easies it for a while.

Last week I even used a spray repellent at night

TCP is brilliant stuff. It stings first but it really clears things up. You can dilute it to be less stingy.

When I was a kid I always got bitten by nats on my hands and they would swell terribly , my mum always got the TCP out lol

Havent had a gnat bite in decades, thank god. But the one year I recall it was v bad, my arms were swollen

My husband has a bad reaction to certain insect bites so has to take an antihistamine.

I haven't been bitten that I'm aware of but would put some tea tree oil on bites (diluted in some water)

I use anthisan for bites , but I'm not very good at not itching. I try really hard not to itch tho
