How to repel mosquitoes

Since summer, many people have felt particularly troubled because the hateful mosquitoes have become more and more rampant. Especially during the rainy season, there are more mosquitoes, because the larvae of mosquitoes will reproduce in large numbers in the water. Being bitten by mosquitoes will make people difficult to sleep, and they will also spread diseases. So let us now find out how to best repel mosquitoes?

1. At home, you can use strong soap to quickly relieve itching, or dip soap in water and apply it to the red and swollen areas. The reason is the sodium salt of higher fatty acids in soap. The sodium salt of this fatty acid is alkaline (containing OH-) after hydrolysis. The aqueous solution of formic acid contains H2O. Because the OH- in soapy water neutralizes with the H2O in formic acid to form H2O, it can quickly eliminate pain and itching.

2. Apply some ammonia to relieve itching. The principle is the same as above.

3. If the bite is very itchy, you can flick it with your fingers first, and then apply floral water, wind oil, etc.

4. Apply or soak the itchy area with salt water, which can soften the swelling and effectively relieve itching.

5. You can use the juice from aloe leaves to relieve itching. If the area becomes red, swollen and itchy after being bitten by a mosquito, you can cut a small piece of aloe vera leaf, wash it, break it apart, and apply it to the red and swollen area a few times to reduce the swelling and relieve the itching.

6. Break a garlic clove and apply the cut surface to the mosquito bite. It will heal in a short while and also relieve the itching.

7. Grind the aspirin pills and apply them to the wound with water, which also has the effect of reducing inflammation and swelling.

8. If you are sensitive to mosquito bites, you may want to take an antihistamine before going out.

Normally we can also put a few opened boxes of cooling oil and wind oil in the room. If we light mosquito coils, it will make us feel particularly choking, and if we hang mosquito nets, the air will feel particularly stuffy. In addition, if you put some wind oil on the whole plate of mosquito coils before lighting them, the mosquito coils will no longer be choking and can also help repel mosquitoes.
