  2. I'm from the Philippines and we also have Neem trees around our yard, but they are not as huge as your Neem. Neighbors are asking for leaves and seeds, too. I used neem water (boil leaves on water) as bath when my daughter has chicken pox. It relieves the itch and I think it killed the virus because she only had 6 chicken pox blisters! It's very effective on hyperacidity, too, but really really bitter!
