Live in PA? Stop Wearing These 4 Colors And Mosquitoes Will Leave You Alone

I love everything about summer, except one thing.

Ugh. You agree, don't you?

Nothing seems to work to alleviate the itch of the pesky bug bites.

I've heard so many different so-called solutions to stop scratching the bites, but none have effectively worked for long for me.

The most popular tip is to slather the pink Calamine lotion all over the marks the mosquitoes leave.

Although, it's a pretty shade of pink, polka-dotting myself with it relieves the itch temporarily, not long-term.

Another tip is to put the pasty Crest toothpaste on the little lumps.

I have to say, this has worked better for me than Calamine lotion, but the relief doesn't last long either.
