Toothpaste is one of the easiest to apply and most accessible
bee sting home remedies.  Toothpaste remedy for bee stings  Many
people believe that you must be very careful not to squeeze the
venom sack when removing a bee sting. This is not supported by
research. The most important thing is to remove the stinger as
quickly as possible by any means. Be careful not to break the
stinger and leave it buried in the skin.     • Remove stinger as
soon as possible. A tweezers or something like a credit card
that can be used to scrape out the stinger are good tools; a
deft pair of fingers may work as well.   • Treat wound with
antibiotic if available.   • Apply toothpaste directly to bee
sting wound.  Why agent works  Many toothpastes contain
glycerine which dries out the venom. Toothpaste is an alkaline
substance which neutralizes acidic venom.   If any rash or skin
irritation results, discontinue use immediately.  More Remedies
