How to prevent mosquitoes from biting babies

Babies cannot stay at home all day. In the summer when the weather is good, mothers need to take their babies outside to get some fresh air. However, the presence of mosquitoes will make the baby suffer a lot. The baby may be bitten by a big bite if he is not careful. The mosquitoes outdoors will make the baby itchy and painful. So how do you prevent mosquitoes from biting your baby? Here are some methods and measures for you.

Mosquito control

Mosquito control should be combined with the ecological habits of mosquitoes, and mosquitoes should be eliminated at the weakest link of their occurrence. We must persist in mobilizing the masses and taking comprehensive measures with environmental improvement as the main focus. Among them, transforming the environment is the most fundamental measure.

Kill overwintering. Overwintering mosquitoes have poor physical condition, weak mobility, low resistance, and a narrow gathering range, so they are easier to kill during this period.

Kill mosquito larvae. Reduce water accumulation, fill in depressions and harden the ground. Turn still water into running water and dredge the ditches.

Strengthen the management of waste tires. Store in a waterless room or store under cover in a waterless room.

Remove small pools of water, especially those in containers. Use water for watering flowers, fire bucket, cover or use screen.

Biological mosquito control. Raise some goldfish in pools and ponds.

Kill adult mosquitoes. Remove weeds to prevent adult mosquitoes from nesting; install or repair screens and doors to prevent adult mosquitoes from entering the room; in special circumstances, carry out chemical control to kill mosquito larvae and adult mosquitoes.

Tips to prevent mosquitoes

Clean and mosquito repellent. Thoroughly clean up accumulated water in various containers inside and outside the home, turn pots and pans upside down, and change the water in vases in a timely manner.

Mosquito coils repel mosquitoes. Close the doors and windows 1-2 hours before going to bed, light the mosquito coils, and open the doors and windows when you go to sleep to keep the air circulating.

Mosquito nets keep away mosquitoes. Mosquito nets should be used in areas where there are many mosquitoes and where floods occur.

Plants repel mosquitoes. Plant impatiens, mint, and tuberose in front of and behind doors and windows. The scent of these flowers and plants can keep mosquitoes out.

The smell deters mosquitoes. Light a few pieces of orange peel indoors; place two or three opened boxes of cooling oil or wind oil under the seat or beside your legs; sew some dried mint leaves into a small cloth bag and place it next to you. These smells will scare mosquitoes away.

Take medicine to repel mosquitoes. Mosquitoes are afraid of the smell of vitamin B. After people take vitamin B, the smell will be secreted into the skin along with sweat, and mosquitoes will naturally "flee away" when they smell it.

Light source repels mosquitoes. Cover a piece of orange-red cellophane (or silk cloth) on a light bulb of 40 watts or above to turn the light orange-red, and mosquitoes will "flee at the sight of the light."
