Do's and Don'ts for Using Insect Repellent
Children are sensitive, so before using an Insect Repellent you should keep the following points in mind:
1. Apply Insect Repellent only on the outer side of the clothes. Don't use it on the inner side of clothes or skin of children.
2. You should not let children use Insect Repellent. An elder should apply Insect Repellent over the clothes of children.
3. Before purchasing an Insect Repellent always read the label and ingredients. Use a natural and safe Natural Repellent for children.
4. Spray the Insect Repellent in open or spacious areas so that they don't intake it through breathe or they don't get irritated with the fragrance.
5. Never use Insect Repellent for children who are below 6 months of age.
6. Avoid using Insect Repellent over or near cuts, wounds or irritated skin.
7. Always wash the clothes after using Insect Repellent on them. Never let children wear it again the next day.
8. If Insect Repellent comes in contact with skin then wash it with soap and water.
9. Few Insect Repellents are safe to use on skin too. Don't spray them directly on the skin, spray it on your hands and then apply on your child's face, neck and hands.
10. Though Insect Repellent keeps mosquitoes, flies and ants away, but you should tell your children to stay away from places like garbage bins, stagnant water, etc. Some extra prevention is always better.
