Heal A Spider Bite







Brown Recluse Spider


Spiders are everywhere, knowing treat a spider bite is valuable information. When Spiders bite their prey they inject digestive enzymes or stomach acids into the prey and wait until the acids have dissolved the tissues before sucking up the juices. Curing such bites is really quite easy.


Instructions


1. Identify the spider and the bite. If you notice that there appears to be a hole forming in your skin with some redness and swelling, there is a good chance you have been bit by a spider. Try to identify the spider if you can. Wash the wound with warm soap and water.


2. Spider bites primarily contain acid and insect toxins are acidic. And what is the best way to neutralize an acid? Do you remember your basic chemistry class? When faced with acid spills it was always important to have an alkaline base like Baking Soda, on hand. Make a paste with the baking soda. In a glass mix about a tablespoon of baking soda with just enough water to form a paste.


3. Apply the baking soda paste to the wound. If you have the time, allow the paste to dry, it will absorb toxins from the wound as well. When it dries, brush off the baking soda and reapply some more. Repeat three or more times. If you don't have time, cover the paste with loose gauze and secure with athletic tape. Continue the baking soda therapy for as many days as necessary. I have cured spider bites within days with this treatment.
