Remedy

Stings, bites, poison ivy

Plantain on a bee or nettle. Jewelweed on ivy, as soon as you can. Wash first.

Trouble breathing, swelling tongue, collapse: epinephrine if they have it. Not plantain. See First ten minutes.

Do this

1.Bee: scrape the stinger, don’t pinch. Plantain chew. Watch their breath.
2.Ivy: soap and water, then jewelweed juice, then do not scratch a highway across the rest of you.
3.Tick: tweezers at the skin, straight out. The herb after that is watching for fever a month.

Plantain (or self-heal) poultice

Chew or mash a clean leaf. Tape it on. The oldest first-aid in the yard.
