Use for tobacco

[COWS]

This spring we have had insects in house that want to get out, including numerous wasps. Tonight one got on my clothes and stung me on the back of the thumb. After getting that one out with the help of my wife, plus another I noticed at the back door, i turned to try to ease the pain. I have some chewing tobacco I got for this purpose and moistened a small amount, placing it on the sting. Relief came almost immediately. Only a slight soreness now.

Good thing to know. I only have pipe tobacco. Don't think I could stand to chew it up lol.

Just moisten it with tap water, slightly, no need to chew it.

No soreness this morning.

Yup either baking soda paste. Or dad smoked cigars. I was stung by a wasp in our barn and he chewed off the end of his cigar and stuck it on the sting. Worked like a charm.

Ammonia works as well.

just about any insect bite.

Don't know if any seen my big fat greek wedding, but the father insisted windex was a cure all, its mostly Ammonia.

Yep grandfather chewed red mule and us kids had chew spit on us most of the summer! I have used a pinch of a cigarette and it works too with spit or water.
