16th hole today I feel a nip on my arm. I look and it's a small insect bite, no insect in sight. The area where the bite happened is now red / bruised, around 3-4" across.
Now that is an irritation.
Old wife’s remedy; warm a spoon, not too hot, and place it on the bite. Allegedly, it kills whatever causes the itch etc. I’ve done it, sceptically, on mossie bites… seems to work.
