☀️Few Tips for Repelling Mosquitoes from Baby’s Skin☀️
–
🏖Do keep your infant and young child’s skin covered in lightweight clothing as much as possible, and try to cover exposed skin
–
🏖Do consider using a mosquito net over your stroller or infant carrier.
–
🏖Don’t use insect repellent on babies under 2-months-old.
–
🏖Do choose insect repellents approved for use on children and follow directions on the package.
–
🏖Do apply insect repellent to clothing /instead of directly to the skin/ when possible. Spritz the ends of sleeves, pant hems and socks, and the insects will avoid nearby skin. –
–
🏖Don’t apply insect repellent near the eyes and mouth, and, in the case of small children, hands, as they may put their hands in their mouth. –
