In article , Graham Dixon
writes I remember reading - some years ago - about bee & wasp stings - On sting is acid and the other alkaline so the treatment for relief is vinegar for the alkaline sting or bicarbonate of soda for the acid sting. I can't remember which is which (probably something to do with my age) does anyone know? Wasp is alkaline so you need vinegar; bee and ant you need bicarb of soda. But the other day I caught a wasp down the back of my dress, and I found antihistamine cream worked even better ;-) -- Kay "Do not insult the crocodile until you have crossed the river" |
