Banish bug bites without using any nasty chemicals

by Melissa | Health, Fitness + Wellbeing

The first sign of summer for me is always my first mosquito bite. I always consider bug bites to be the price I pay for good weather and barbecues. But now that I have kids, I feel the need to douse them in something to ward off bug bites, and I’ve never been a...
