I hope I don't get West Nile Virus.

i don't know about west nile, but if they itch, rub them with alcohol BEFORE you scratch. they will quit itching and it won't burn.

so rub them with alcohol now--it may burn but it might help too.

it will help carol. kate does that all the time because she is allergic to them. we carry alcohol pads for that reason.
