Keep Mosquitoes Away

Put lemon-scented dish soap in a white plate outside your door, or in the yard where mosquitoes might be. By the next day, the mosquitoes will be dead around the plate. They like the smell of the dish soap, but it kills them.

Poison oak

For poison oak use natural aloe vera gel. Also when you shower use Fels Naptha laundry soap to help dry it up and prevent spreading. It also removes the oil from skin.

Burns

Take a leaf from an aloe plant, split it down the middle and apply the open leaf to the burned area. If you have the Aloe Vera Gel for sunburn that also is great to use.
