After a bite, apply amoniaco (Ammonia). Carry some in a spray.

when i was back in the UK b4 lockdown i bought 2/3 tubes of Boots own brand of ANTHISAN cream . £2.99 as opposed to  over 8 euros here at farmacias

it works well

also i have put a hot teaspoon on bites and that works in reducing sting.

Try Halley spray that you can get from the Farmacia. It is not cheap, small size is about 9€, large 12€. It works for me, so definitely worth paying extra.

Try with amoiaco. 50c a "bucket-full"! All shops stock it near "cleaning products" most of the anti-mozzi have it in the ingredient. V

As above:

"Rubbing just a dab of ammonia on the bite will provide almost instant itch relief. Ammonia is the active ingredient in one of the versions of the commercially available "After Bite" itch relief solution. ... It can also relieve the itch and swelling from a mosquito bite".Jul 28, 2017
