Hi there,

I had skin contact with a rove bug (www.whatsthatbug.com/2010/08/08/creechie-bug-paederus-rove-beetle-warning-for-bangkok-thailand/) also called acid bug
I did apply a drop of MMS1 (unactivated) to help cure it. The acid of the bug body actually burns your skin somehow. Was it a good idea to do MMS?

Most bug bites are acidic so putting MMS (unactivated) on a bite should neutralize the bug acid because MMS is very alkaline. MMS alone on healthy skin will also burn due to its high alkalinity. The maximum time suggested for MMS to be on skin is 5 minutes, then wash it off with water.

Starting on page 204 in Jim's latest book, you will find "Stings and Bites" which is listed under "Emergency Protocols".

You do have Jim's book, right? :huh:

Hi again,
it is not a bug bite, the whole bug is poisening and somehow burns your skin, it does not inject anything. Yes I have the book but it not say under bites but under burn so same proceedure. Just that I did not wipe off after 5 min. So next time I know :-)
