Ripe fruit from Neem tree
Jojo in Hawaii -I got a nasty wasp sting on my arm 2 days ago which caused the area to swell and itch. First I tried taking 12 grams of Vitamin C along with Quercetin which seemed to keep it from swelling more but the swelling didn't seem to be going down so I decided to rub the ripe fruit from my Neem tree on the area. It got real itchy and then the swelling went down w/in an hour so I rubbed more neem fruit and the itch went away and swelling also lessened. I think I still have the stinger in me but my arm is doing a lot better after using neem.

copper penny removes stinger
Kathleen Duerr in Madison, Wisconsin -I was stung by a huge bumble bee on my hand. Within seconds the veins raised up and the hand swelled as if it hand been sprained. Even the fingers were sore and arthritic feeling. A welt raised and made a ring stemming from the sting. I thought there was no stinger after fishing with a tweezers, but a week later it was still miserable. I went to a site where someone suggested the penny as a remedy and others had said it really worked. Because the week had passed I thought I was too late. I made a patch of pennies and put it on the ring of venom infected area. No good. I tried aloe vera which brought immediate temporary relief. One entire week after the sting I decided to try the penny on the opening to the wound/sting. The site said to leave it on for 15 minutes. I had a hard time sitting still and got up and did things, the penny fell off so I put it back on for 2 minutes more than the 15, just to be sure. IT WORKED! Two little black spots appeared and I removed them which caused complete healing. The original source of the remedy said to tape the penny on. I'd suggest that. Now I can't find the site to tell them how well it worked but I'm going to persevere. I couldn't resist sharing it with this site because it had not yet been mentioned.
