Houston Babies

mosquito armies...ick

My baby shower was over the weekend and I have no less than 30 bites all over me. They surely love pregnant women's blood. There were literally swarms of them hovering at any given spot. I don't ever remember Houston being this infested with these little bugs...but then again this is only my fourth year in the city. Surely, this army of mosquitoes isn't typical?!?! My guests even told me they followed them home in their cars. Any home remedies on how to deal with itchy bites?

  • Yes, they are terrible right now.  I have never seen them so bad.  You could try ome of that itch stop stuff in stores (if there is any left!).
  • Cortizone 10! It is the only thing that works on DS and it worked for me too.

  • This is going to sound CRAZY...but deoderant.  DD is highly allergic to mosquitos and when she sees a bite she goes running to DH's drawer to use his deoderant.  It must work!
