Seeing this all over the place and don't know much what to do with it apart from rubbing it (the juice) on nettle stings. Any other known uses folks? Thanks in advance!!
Heyho ,
Even though it worked for me as a kid for nettle stings , when out with my kids I carry a whitchhazel/aloevera spray , I heard the dockleaf had just a placebo effect . After my son fell in a nettle patch I soon realised dockleaves were just so much bollox .
Cheers , Trev .
yup nettle juice works!I've been told one of the best nettle sting cures is cleavers (goose grass / sticky bud plant) - bruise and crush to extract 'juice' just like dock
I've also heard that nettle uses in a similar way is the best still but that seems too much like a way of getting further stung, though I wouldn't be supprised if it's true.... I'll stick to doc / cleavers thanks!
