Hi there, not sure if this link would interest you but I think it is relevant to the article. I really love the herb that I’ve linked. For insect bites and allergic rashes I swear by epilobium angustifolium (fireweed). This beautiful herb grows naturally throughout much of North America and Canada and it is one to look out for when you’re hiking, especially with kids. It’s simply an itch stopper! I make a salve, but I’ve even crushed a fresh leaf and wiped it on a scratch and it relieves the itch straight away. Anyway, thought you’d be interested in adding this link to your blog as an information resource. Cheers! Deanna, Alchemilla
