Lavender essential oil!
It’s a shame this isn’t more common knowledge. Maybe you already know about it but if not, I want to tell you that lavender essential oil is the most magical treatment for a bee sting (or wasp, etc.). I’ve been treating stings this way for many years and it’s truly incredible. The pain disappears! As do the redness and swelling. Very soon your sting is a distant memory. Every single time I use this remedy I am completely blown away by its efficacy.
Just apply some lavender essential oil, neat (undiluted), to the bee sting. Lavender oil is gentle enough to be used neat for most folks, unlike some other essential oils.
Lavender oil is a great thing to keep in your first aid kit, if only for this reason alone.

It’s also an excellent treatment for minor burns!
Thanks for the tip. As a beekeeper I use the Master’s Miracle which is alkaline. Takes the pain right away but the people I talk to I had nothing much to tell them so now I do, I will tell them to try lavendar essential oil!
I didn’t know this! Thanks so much for sharing!!
