l can understand the pains. Hope its not giving you spots on the legs? If you have spots, mix vitamin E-oil in your cream, it will clear the spots. For the prevention, its only by wearing sockings and using mosquito nets. I dont think anyone can stand mosquito bites and itching.

The mosquitoes like me too.What is your blood type?Mine is AB and it seems to attract them. Everytime i got biten by the mosquitoes,my skin becomes red and swollen and it feels itchy so badly.My experience is that you can't scratch the skin for it won't help stop itchy.Usually i apply herbal medicine on the skin and it works.You can have a try.

Hi aciddrop. Yup, I just know that itchy feeling and the irritation. In fact, since I stay in a Southeast Asia country where the climate is tropical, mosquito are almost everywhere to harassed us. Thanked God I am staying in the city where less mosquitoes can be found here. By the way, have you tried getting mosquito nets? I am glad I have one. This is very practical and can actually reduce the risk of getting diseases caused by the mosquitoes. Besides, you can be peacefully asleep when you are in the mosquito net. Anyway, I suggest you reading the information on mosquito nettings and also what attracts mosquito to human as well as mosquito bite treatments at http://www.mosquito-nettings.com/ Happy reading!

There is no cure really. Tell me, I want to know too. :P Sometimes I do get assaulted by them, and when they come, they just keep coming!! If I see them, I will definitely kill them. But most times, they come when you are asleep so you will only notice their bites when they are already gone (for now). Sick, isn't it? *hmph*

I have my mosquito repellent here all the time and i don't let mosquitoes have a go at me. I hate when mosquitoes bite. If at all mosquitoes bite me i have that itching as well as pain.

i will just put vicks vaporub or any menthol ointment to remove the itch such as BEtet or Katinko but the problem of Betet and Katinko is their smell.so i prefer vicks
