Baking Soda is an amazing natural remedy for bed bug bites. Baking Soda has a soothing effect on the skin and alleviates the itching and pain caused by bed bugs. You can also use Listerine mouthwash or soda bicarbonate mix to get rid of the smell of bed bugs. Did you know that baking soda can get rid of bed bug bites? Yep, it’s true. Baking soda is a natural odor remover for laundry, fabric freshener and even a cleaner for your home’s floors. If baking soda can help with all these things, maybe you should try using baking soda on bed bug bites to see if it helps to reduce the swelling and itching. Bed bugs are an inconvenient and difficult situation. But when the bites come, you must do something to lessen the swelling and itchiness. This is a method that I’ve used to get rid of bed bug bites quickly with baking soda.
Baking Soda On Bed Bug Bites
What are bed bug bites?
Bedbug bites can be itchy, irritating and sometimes difficult to diagnose. Bedbugs are small, flat and brownish in colour. They’re typically found in bedding or mattresses but can also be found in other places around your home such as behind light switches and electrical outlets.
What does a bed bug bite look like?
Bed bug bites tend to appear in a line or cluster, not scattered around the body.
They are usually red, with an itchy bump that can get larger after being scratched by the person who has been bitten.
If you have multiple bites in one area, they may look similar to hives or mosquito bites. Bed bugs also tend to bite in areas of exposed skin (i.e., where clothing is not covering), such as arms and legs (or toes).
Why does baking soda work on bed bug bites?
Baking soda is a natural antacid and anti-inflammatory. It helps with itching, swelling, and redness while also helping to stop bacteria from growing and spreading. This makes baking soda an excellent choice for treating bed bug bites.
Baking soda paste
It is possible to apply baking soda directly to the skin. Baking soda can be mixed with water or apple cider vinegar to create a paste that can be applied directly to the skin, but this method may cause irritation. If you want to use baking soda in this way, dilute it with plenty of water before using.
Do not apply baking soda directly from its container onto your skin; add some water first!
Baking soda and water soak
To do a baking soda and water soak, you’ll need to:
- Soak a cotton ball in water, then press it against the affected area for 10-15 minutes. The liquid will help dissolve any dead skin cells that are causing irritation and itchiness, while the baking soda will neutralize any acidity in your bites.
Baking soda and apple cider vinegar soak
Baking soda and apple cider vinegar soak is a great way to help relieve the itching and swelling associated with bed bug bites. The mixture can be used for both adults and children, but it’s important that you make sure the solution does not dry out before you’re done soaking. You can add other ingredients or herbs to your bath if you like as well!
To make this soak, combine 2 cups of water with 1 tablespoon of baking soda and 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar in a tub filled with warm water. Soak yourself in the tub for 20 minutes at least three times per day until your skin feels better—you’ll know when this happens because the itching will stop!
Baking soda is an easy and effective way to treat bed bug bites.
Baking soda is an easy and effective way to treat bed bug bites. It is inexpensive, simple to use and safe for everyone, including children. Baking soda can also be used as a natural deodorizer that has many other uses around your home or even in the garden.
Baking soda comes in many forms including powder and liquid. You will want to buy a large container of baking soda that you can mix with water when needed. If you have small children or pets at home make sure they do not eat raw baking soda because it could cause serious stomach problems for them!
