Yellow Fly Bite Remedy
Lori Ceier from Walton Outdoors ( http://www.waltonoutdoors.com/yellow-flies-are-back/ ) recommends this recipe. It's the only thing I found that works for me, and I have REALLY bad reactions to the little bugger's bite.

1 tsp. baking soda

1/3 tsp. papain (meat tenderizer)
1 crushed aspirin
Mix thoroughly and store in refrigerator (be sure to label container). When needed, shake well and apply with cotton swab, and rub briskly.
