I could not believe that out of the 12 days in Jamaica this was the only time and place I got bit…no attacked would be a better description. It was like they landed on me, said grace then bit at the same time! It was crazy sudden pain.

The chef came with a repellent that worked with getting them off and keeping them away. However, my legs were flaming with pain and itching like mad.

I remembered what would take away the itch.

“Lime…lime…do you have any lime?”

He came running with a half lime. I saw the juice drip on my thigh before the fruit touched my legs so he’s using a juicy one…wonderful. The itching stopped almost instantly once the lime was rubbed on my legs. I gave thanks and praise for lime that afternoon and the hands that did the rubbing.

Chef said “Dem scent fresh blood.”

Huh??? All I know is that ‘ish hurt.
Hi, Vi,
Loving your reports. Could you be more specific about where you were when the mosquitos attacked (so I can avoid it)? They love me. I will remember the lime cure, never tried it before. Had good luck this last time in Jamaica with cortisone ointment.

Never been to Port Antonio, would love to get there sometime.

Many thanks!
