Mud paste for Bee stings

To get effective relief from a bee sting, make a mud paste (water and dirt) and put it directly on the sting. It will relieve the swelling, stinging and redness. Once the paste has dried and it is feeling better, simply wash it off with cool water.

70 years of bee stings mud Comments By: James Rankin I am 70 years old and have been stung numberous times by almost every kind of bee, wasp, hornet there can be and whenever I had access to some mud I have used it immediately on the bite and for me, it has always taken the sting, swelling and redness out of the bite. So for what it's worth, I vote to keep a mud pack around when you can, if you are exposed to bees a lot. It works for me   You can also use baking soda and water Comments By: Dennis Parker A paste of baking soda and water also works. We used this years ago for our stings.
