Hot Spoon on a Mosquito Bite

TIP OF THE DAY: Have a mosquito bite? Get a spoon hot (run under hot water – enough to tolerate) and press it onto your mosquito bite for just a couple of minutes. Take the spoon away and the itch should be gone. The bump, not so much.

How does this work? When mosquitos bite, they inject a protein under your skin to keep that blood moving. When placing a hot spoon on your bite, the protein will dissipate and take away the itch.

Effing mosquitos. I hate them.
