Joe,
A Mennonite friend told me of this one that they use, I have used it several 
times and it does work.  Take bleach and put a little on a cotton ball and 
apply it to the sting area.  I seriously don't recommend doing this for 
anyone who has chemical sensitivities.  Some people are allergic to bleach. 
After dabbing it with bleach, I also use another old Mennonite remedy called 
"Union Salve" made by Lute Remedies in Ohio, USA.  It is an ointment used 
for minor burns and non-posionous insect bites.  Works great on burns and 
bites.
