The burning, stinging itch caused by an encounter with a Texas Bull Nettle is agonizing, but easily and quickly solved. Urinate on it! The urine contains something that reacts chemically and stops the pain instantly on contact. Believe me, when you wade off into a bull nettle, you'll be ready to try anything. I was, and remembered what my Dad had told me in my native East Texas (Nacogdoches County) I thought he was just pulling a joke on me, but it works. Reaction to the nettle feels like fire ants crawling and biting under your skin, so the incentive to urinate on yourself can be pretty strong. It may be gross, but Pardner, it will kill the pain quicker'n you can spit!
You squeeze some liquid out of the stinging nettle and just rub it on to where it stings
