LOCAL health services have been offering advice on insect bites or stings this bank holiday.
Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is directing people to www.nhs.uk/conditions/insect-bites-and-stings/ for information on how to avoid insect bites, and what to do if you are bitten or stung.
The CCG is also reminding people to seek advice from pharmacist about over-the-counter treatments that can help, such as painkillers, creams for itching and antihistamines.
The NHS 111 can be contacted for urgent advice.
