You can spray the repellents on to the exposed areas such as the arms and legs before they head out to keep them safe from mosquito bites. Sometimes mosquito bites can cause severe allergic reactions on skin in children leaving the spot itchy, red and wounded.
Mosquitoes are found near water bodies and in thick vegetation. The mosquitoes breed in water. Hence the infestation is high near ponds or stagnated water.
There are two common types of mosquitoes. The permanent water mosquitoes lay their eggs on the surface of still water. Especially at the edges of a lake, ponds and also in the vegetation in swamps and marshes. Species in this particular type of mosquitoes either prefer fresh water or stagnant polluted water.
Another type is the floodwater mosquito that lays egg in the moist soil. They lay as many one million eggs per acre that will dry out and hatch when rainwater stagnates, drainage water flows through or sometimes also in farm lands.
Hence it is absolutely important to keep mosquito repellent handy, especially during monsoons when they breed the most. Dab the repellent on exposed areas and step out confidently without the fear of mosquito bites!
