A. Protecting your baby from mosquitoes is important to prevent bites and potential diseases. First, you can use mosquito nets around the crib or stroller to create a physical barrier. Choose nets that are fine-mesh to prevent mosquitoes from getting through. Secondly, dress your baby in long sleeves, pants, and socks made of lightweight, breathable fabric to reduce exposed skin. You can apply baby-safe mosquito repellents that contain natural ingredients like citronella or eucalyptus, but avoid those with DEET, as it can be harmful to infants. Additionally, ensure that the baby's sleeping area is free from mosquitoes by keeping windows closed or using mosquito screens. You can also use a mosquito coil or electric mosquito repellent in the room, but ensure your baby is not directly exposed to the fumes. Keep your baby indoors during peak mosquito activity times, especially during dawn and dusk. Lastly, keep the environment clean by removing any standing water around the house where mosquitoes may breed.
