A. hello One of the best ways to keep mosquitoes from biting you is to simply cover your skin. Wear your sleeves and pant legs as long as possible to cover as much skin as possible. Also keep your clothing as loose as possible... Mosquitoes to be attracted to warm bodies, so staying cool is one way to avoid bites. Dark colored fabrics absorb more heat from the sun than light colored alternatives, so avoid them use mosquito net Apply mosquito repellent to uncovered skin surfaces when outdoors, especially during the day. When using sunscreen, apply it before insect repellent.... Be sure to change water in containers often. Add a few drops of kerosene oil to open drains, small ponds, and other places where stagnant water remains.

A. For safety from mosquito ... maintain hygiene and cleaningness around the baby and the home... use mosquito net in the home ( either the adult one or the baby one)... as the baby may be sleeping for most of the time... don't move much... Use window screens in the house... Seal all the gaps.. breastfeed him more often... when taking out, make him wear comfortable and loose full clothes... Preferably cotton... apply fabric roll on... make him wear light colour dress.. Avoid using strong smelly cosmetics as the mosquito get attached to them... You can apply fabric roll on... you can apply infant mosquito repellent cream too. but first check for allergy.. have a. patch test before applying fully on the baby's skin.. also don't apply it in the places like finger , fist, toes etc which she can put in the mouth... also refrain from using it near the mouth and eyes. . If the mosquitoes bites him then wash the area with clean water and apply some caladryl lotion on the area...
