Avoiding bug bites

I love summer but there are a few aspects of it that I can do without, one of the bigger ones being bugs. I dislike them all -- spiders, mosquitos, bees, especially wasps. This summer, I've managed to avoid getting bitten much, but many of my friends haven't been so lucky. Here are some tips for avoiding bug bites from Everyday Health:

• Don't provoke insects
• Avoid rapid movement
• Don't wear lots of perfume or floral prints
• Cover up and apply insect repellent

If you do get stung, there are some great home remedies out there, including soothing a bee sting with lemons. What do you do to soothe a bite?
