If that happens while in negril, save some in a cup...the urine helps with the sting....if it happens on your leg, the point and shoot method works, any higher on the body, then you gotta pour and wipe...lol...Quote:

Take some Adolph's meat tenderizer. If you get stung apply the tenderizer. It has papaya enzymes in it that will break down the poison....
In Florida the lifeguards use vinegar. The acid neutralizes the sting. (or so they claim!)
Check out Tender's After Sting http://www.tendercorp.com/products.p...ATMENTS&cat=58 They make several products that are useful, especially After Bite "The itch eraser." It really does erase the itch if applied quickly after the mosquito bite. I travel with both when in Jamaica and have had occassion to use them both. Marblehead rates them 5 out of 5 Respects!
We enjoy Xtabi for snorkeling and a nice lunch.
