We go through a lot of Tea Tree Oil in our house, as it is the first port of call for mosquito and ant bites here. I also find Eucalyptus oil good for bites, and Lavender oil for other things. If the irritation doesn't go away immediately, we re-apply once or twice until we get relief. Usually that works for 24 hours or so, or it may not be needed again. I shall give lavender a whirl next time, though, see what happens. Rowena -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
