Put Goodbye Sandfly on straight away after being bitten, it reduces the severity of the bite.

This is because you are immediately disinfecting and soothing the sandfly or mosquito bite before a reaction begins. You can also gently massage Goodbye Sandfly into your skin to soothe the itch once it's started.Over the years we have tried several other natural remedies. We have applied raw onion (it works pretty well), straight lavender, tea tree & manuka essential oils (sorta works), homoeopathics (have seen two miracle treatments), massage and gentle point pressure (works pretty well). We have heard that drinking Chamomile Tea helps, but have not tried it ourselves.

If you are one of the unlucky ones that is reading this with legs covered in bites, all we can say is, survive this round of bites as best you can and try NOT to scratch. Then, work on how to stay bite free. You can live and travel in fierce sandfly country and get very few bites.
