How do you cure an bee bite?

Mosquito bites, while intensely annoying, are rarely serious in their own right. Over-the-counter (OTC) medications are usually enough to treat the itch and any swelling. Yet mosquitoes can transmit harmful pathogens with their bites, causing serious diseases like West Nile virus, malaria and encephalitis. So, the wisest way to protect yourself is to prevent bites in the first place. Most people would go straight for the itch cream for that annoying itch, but sometimes itch cream doesn't work, and most of the time mosquito bites have a bad reaction to it, as in more itching, swelling and sometimes even spreading the itch. And also, never sratch the bite then scratch somewhere else, just like poisine ivy, it can spread the itch, plus that causes it to stay on your skin longer, itch more, and bleed. Hope this helps!!!
