When I was up in Pennsylvania last year, I went to King's Herb Nook just a little north of Gettysburg and got a little jar of Black Drawing Ointment and it is some powerful stuff. A friend of mine was bitten at the base of her thumb by a brown recluse (she saw the spider so it's not 'probably' a brown recluse) and her doctor kind of shook his head and told her the relative horror she was in for. I gave her some of the BDO and she bandaged it onto her hand and THE NEXT DAY the bite was almost healed. I told her to go show her doctor but don't know whether she has or not. It's really excellent stuff. I think I have a recipe for it at home; if I can find it I'll post it.

Anybody else use this stuff?
