Summer is coming and many people are excited to finally take off their thick cotton jackets, but some people are still worried about summer mosquito bites. Adults have a relatively high resistance, so mosquito bites are nothing more than itching for a few days. But for babies, it is not that simple. So how can babies prevent mosquito bites?

First of all, how to prevent your baby from being bitten by mosquitoes? Mothers must pay attention to the fact that the baby's physique is relatively weak, so when preventing mosquitoes, they must ensure that it does not harm the baby. First of all, when summer comes, the most non-toxic and pollution-free method is to use mosquito nets and screens. Install a layer of screens on the windows at home. This not only allows ventilation, but also prevents mosquitoes from entering the house. Be sure to put up a mosquito net when the baby sleeps at night because the baby is active during the day and generally will not be bitten, so mosquito prevention at night is essential. If mothers really have to choose chemical methods to repel mosquitoes, they must choose non-toxic and odorless mosquito repellents, and do not use them directly when the baby is in the house. You can wait until you go out and spray them in a closed room. When you return home, remember to open the windows for ventilation, or prepare a pot of mosquito-repellent plants at home. These plants are generally non-toxic.

What should you do when your baby is bitten by a mosquito? First of all, the baby's physique is very weak and mosquito bites need to be treated in time. After the baby is bitten by mosquitoes, you can use the baby's floral water mixed with water to apply it on the baby's body. Remember not to apply it directly on the skin. You can also use the cooling oil we often use, that is, Fengyoujing. In addition, mothers can also use some small tricks. For example, aloe vera can also relieve itching. Daily toothpaste applied on the body can also relieve itching. Ginger slices also have the effect of relieving itching. Mothers must pay attention to frequently washing, disinfecting and cutting their babies' nails because babies will scratch themselves when they feel itchy, which can reduce the risk of infection.
