Title: Stinging Nettles Sting
Post by: Zebrakorn on June 28, 2003, 02:52:01 pm

I spent most of today clearing out nettles bigger than my house so I can paint my Dad's fifty million mile fence. They were so huge they kept breaking the strimmer so I ended up hacking away at them with a verrry sharp scythe (we like scythes .. they are fun!). But as a result I'm now covered in stinging nettle stings lol.

They're not painful, they're just damn itchy annoying things.. anyone know how to put a stop to them with simple household ingrediants? I have no special creams or ointments or 'anti sting' solutions =/

Does wholegrain mustard mixed with household bleach work? =P

Oh yes!

You're not suppose to pick those when you're on the Oregon Trail.

Aww thanks! I do know some wonderful people don't I =)

They've stopped bothering me now. So I guess the best cure is a bit of patience .. or maybe it was those cookies I ate .. we shall never know =)
