Submitted by Mick on Mon, 2012-09-24 07:48
G'day guys
Well just had a nice weekend doing a bit of work on a mates shack but I got absolutely smashed by the lil bastards. What is the secret to stopping the itch?? They never used to bother me growing up but shit they got me good. So whats your tips on prevention and the cure for the itch??
Cheers Mick

The other one is Aspro Clear
Take a tablet and dip it in water (not to much water) and rub it on while its foaming.You will use a few of them but the relief is worth every cent.
So tell me have you got your info from years on the water or hours on the internet?

Other releif is a wire
Other releif is a wire brush. Scratch of 4mm of skin and the blood will flush out the poison. It does work, but will get infected
