To relieve pain from wasp sting soak affected area in very cold or ice water to  witch a couple of drops of Detol have been added.

To relieve itching from mosquito bites apply tooth paste in an emergancy.

Reminds me a bit of when we were kids - go on holidays, get bitten and be covered with dried pink calamine lotion. Toothpaste may look the same only white! I'll give that a try next time - thanks Herbie.

For mosquito bites or any bites that cause itching I have found that the roll on anti perspirants work extremely well.
