A. To prevent mosquito bites in infants, it is crucial to create a safe environment by using mosquito nets, screens on windows, and keeping doors closed. Avoid taking infants outdoors during dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active. Dress the infant in light-colored, long-sleeved clothing and pants to cover as much skin as possible. Use baby-safe insect repellents approved by pediatricians, applying it to clothing rather than directly on the skin. Avoid scented soaps and lotions, as they may attract mosquitoes. Ensure stagnant water is not present around thex home to eliminate breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Consult a healthcare provider for further advice on protecting infants from mosquito bites.

A. Are you sure this is a mosquito bite because it is looking like some kind of an allergy infection that is happening otherwise I will suggest you the home remedy that I usually follow that coconut oil oil is definitely important mix Kapoor and do that and apply that mixture regularly not 2×4 to 5 times in the day every 3 to 4 hours that’s going to help in keeping mosquitoes away avoid itching onto the skin and also will help in avoiding these marks on the board
