Guest guest Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 I always use iodine on bites. Especially mosquito bites, it will keep the bites from becoming itchy and swelling up.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 but if it's a tick (Lyme tick) can this be helpful or worse? celine > > > Should we put some Lugol on tick bites, mosquito and spider bites? > > > > celine > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 When putting iodine on tick bites, do you have to use any oils as I have read in other posts or just apply the iodine? > > > Should we put some Lugol on tick bites, mosquito and spider bites? > > > > celine > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 I just use iodine straight on the bite. It usually only requires one application, I try to put it on immediately after I get a bite.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Great idea. So, I can put my bottle of iodine tincture I don't want to use in my "tick kit" that I keep in my 'nature backpack' along with tweezers, gloves, and vial!
