Guest guest Posted September 1, 2003 Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 Hi Carol: I live in a semi-rural area of Md where chiggers, ticks and mosquitoes are really a pest. It was an elderly neighbor of mine who years ago told me to scrub salt and water on the insect bites. (She died at 104!) You could tell your brother that I found the chiggers will need about three or four salt scrubs before you can totally get rid of them ..and the itch. No I haven't heard of Dr. Batmanghelidj, but I'll check out his book - sounds great! Thanks so much Carol. Evonne >but my brother lives in Tenn., and he and his wife are plagued with chiggers all the time. They've never known what to do about the itch. I will tell them. Thank you!< >Have you heard of Dr. Batmanghelidj? He wrote " Your Body's Many Cries For Water " - and he also promotes water with salt in it. < Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
